Deposition*16 December 1663She gave a deposition on 16 December 1663 at tract A54, Pungoteague, Accomack Co, VA. Deposition of Mrs. Anne Tofft, aged 20 years, 16 December 1663: About last April Mr. Jno. Custis, Jno. Mellish--master of the ship Royal Oake, and Jno. Shepheard came to Col. Edm. Scarburgh at Pungoteage requesting to have their ship released from seizure. Anne understood from their conversation that the ship was seized upon its first arrival, for it had come directly from Holland to Virginia with various goods and had neither a passport from any British port, nor proof that the Royal Oake was a free ship of England. Then Mr. Custis went out of the house and talked privately with Col. Scarburgh, then with the master and the merchant by turns, and then sometimes they spoke to Scarburgh together, but what they said, Anne did not know. When they came in again, Mr. John Custis solemnly swore that the Royal Oake was the same ship that was in Virginia last year and belonged to the same owners. Then Col. Scarburgh drew a bond, and Anne witnessed that it was signed and sealed by Mr. Mellish, Mr. Shepheard and Mr. Custis and delivered to Col. Scarburgh for His Majesty's use. After that the men talked about hogsheads of tobacco that were shipped on the Royal Oake without certificate and were seized according to the Act of Assembly. These Scarburgh said he would not take, but because they needed tobacco, he would put more in if they would carry the amount of tobacco seized for a friend of his and deliver them in Holland without charge. They all left the house and Anne saw them walking together and apart with Col. Scarburgh. When they came in again, she heard them all agree to deliver forty hogsheads clear of charges to Holland. One of them urged Col. Scarburgh to pay two shillings per hogshead of the seized tobacco for Virginia customs, which he agreed to do. The master said he would send his sloops for the tobacco. They stayed an hour or more afterwards merrily eating and drinking and acting very satisfied, saying they were glad they had ended their business this way. A few days later Claus, the master's mate of the Royal Oake came to Pungotege with two sloops and told Scarburgh he had come for forty hogsheads of tobacco and whatever more Scarburgh wanted to send. So they carried away tobacco, but how much Anne did not know. Signed, Ann Toft. Whitelaw states that Mrs. Ann Toft was apparently a privileged guest in Scarburgh's house at the time.2,9

Jane said that William Benston had killed Mr. Smith's sow, and she would prove it: "Olester's wife shall swear, and my husband shall swear, and I will swear that it is Mr. Smith's sow." Fookes rebuked her saying, "Jane, you may swear, but you have not the command of other folk's oaths." Jane said, "Nay, they shall, and I will do Benston all the mischief that lies in my power." Signed, Amy (A) Fookes. Oath of Anne Toft, 12 March 1663/64: What Amy Fookes said is the truth. Signed, Anne Toft. (NOTE: Since Amey Fookes is known to have lived at Puntogeague, this was probably Col. Scarburgh's house at Puntogeague (mentioned in 1663) where Ann Toft was now living.)10

Court - named in ord18 March 1666/67She was named in a court order on 18 March 1666/67 at Accomack Co, VA. Francis Talcot, servant to Mrs. Ann Toft, was guilty of the sin of fornication and was ordered committed into the sheriff's custody to receive corporal punishment. An Act of Assembly enacted 23 March 1662/63, decreed that if a woman servant commit fornication and have an illegitimate child, she should serve an extra two years. Ordered that Francis Talcot serve Mrs. Ann Toft two years for her offence.18 
Court - named in ord16 August 1667She was named in a court order on 16 August 1667 at Gargaphia, Accomack Co, VA. Four Indian youths were presented by a great man of Kikotanck, sent by their king to have their ages judged. Wickepeason, by the court renamed Humphrey, was judged to be 14 years old. Oquiock, renamed Edward, and Chotohoin, renamed George, were both judged to be 12 years old. Anuck, renamed Richard, was judged to be 10 years old. They were to serve Mrs. Ann Toft at Gargaphie till they were 24 years old, as was agreed by the King of Kikotanck. At the expiration of their terms of service, they were to receive corn and clothes according to the custom of the country and one good cow each.19 
Court - named in ord24 October 1667She was named in a court order on 24 October 1667 at Accomack Co, VA. The whippings of Nicholas Mellichopp and Mary Barton were remitted when their mistress agreed to pay their fines. Ordered that Nicholas Mellichopp and Mary Barton each serve their mistress, Mrs. Ann Toft, six months for having their fines paid; Mary Barton was to serve two extra years [for fornication], and Nicholas was to serve one and a half years for fathering the child. He was also to serve one year for the 1000 lbs tobacco paid at his request to Robert Hill and his wife for nursing the child according to the agreement with his mistress. He was also to pay court costs. Nicholas Millichopp and Mary Barton, condemned for having a bastard child, pleaded that they were married in England but could not prove it. They confessed that they did not enter the country as man and wife, and did not declare themselves so until some months after living with Mrs. Ann Toft. They said they concealed their marriage at the advice of Mr. Baugh, who had brought them in and sold them for their times of service. The court considered this case and the testimony of Mr. Browne, who bought the servants from Mr. Baugh, and the testimony of Col. Edm. Scarburgh, who bought them from Browne for Mrs. Toft. Nicholas and Mary had presented themselves as single persons in no way related and came "by two different names, living as unconcerned in their mistress's services until their fornication was discovered." The precedent of accepting this marriage only on their say so would encourage "all whores and rogues" to make similar claims. It was fraud on the part of Mellichop and Mary Barton to conceal a marriage, for single servants were more costly to purchase. After pretending to be married they were admonished, were prevented from living together, and were told they would suffer the consequences of fornication if the act was proved. The grand jury having convicted them, and the concealing of their (supposed) marriage being a threat, the court ordered that "Nicholas Mellichopp and Mary Barton be from their own mouths condemned as fornicators and not to be accounted as man and wife." Even if they were to bring proof of a marriage, they would be accounted as single because they had entered the country that way, had twice affirmed it, and had not claimed it until their fornication was discovered. They would not be allowed to live together until they had served Mrs. Ann Toft for their full terms plus time for fornication and debt. It was their own deceit that "occasioned this censure which ought only to bring damage to the cheats and deceivers themselves."20 
Court - named in ord17 December 1667She was named in a court order on 17 December 1667 at Accomack Co, VA. Mrs. Anne Toft complained against Thomas Bell, who had often run away, and most recently had been gone for three months and three weeks committing felonies. He was responsible for losing fifteen sheep, which along with his other trespasses, amounted to 5000 lbs tobacco. Ordered that Bell pay for damages and running away by extended time of service.21 
Court - named in ord16 June 1668She was named in a court order on 16 June 1668 at Accomack Co, VA. Penelope Sandford was guilty of bastard bearing; she was acquitted of corporal punishment when Col. Scarburgh agreed to pay her fine of 500 lbs tobacco on behalf of her mistress, Mrs. Ann Toft. Penelope Sandford, servant to Mrs. Ann Toft, was ordered to serve an additional two and a half years after her indenture was expired for bastard bearing and for court charges.22 
Court - named in ord17 August 1668She was named in a court order on 17 August 1668 at Accomack Co, VA. Hanah Leach, servant to Mrs. Ann Toft, was presented for having a bastard child; her mistress agreed to pay the fine, thus remitting Hanah's corporal punishment. Col. Scarburgh exited the court for the following: At the request of Hanah Leach, the court determined the time she should serve her mistress, Mrs. Ann Toft. Ordered that Hanah serve five years to complete her time of service; four years for having an illegitimate child by John Johnson, a Negro, and one year to pay the 1000 lb tobacco fine paid by Toft to acquit Hanah's whipping on that occasion; two and a half years for having an illegitimate child by Wm. Gray and for paying Toft for the fine--a total of twelve years and six months.23 
Tithable list1669She was on the list of tithables at Accomack Co, VA, in 1669. She was shown as Mrs. Ann Toft with 21 tithes on a combined county wide list. This was the largest number on the list. Col. Edm. Scarburgh was second with 19 (besides tradsmen).24 
Land bought*1669She bought land in 1669 at tract A180, Horntown, Accomack Co, VA. Col. Edmund Scarburgh and his wife Mary sold 3,000 of this tract to Mrs. Ann Toft for 9,101 pounds of Mevis Sugar in Cask and 708 pounds of Indigo. After the marriage of Mrs. Toft to Daniel Jenifer, a joint patent was issued to them in 1672 for 5,000 acres to include the above 3,000 acres and 2,000 acres of new land; in later transactions this new part usually was called swamp land. When Mrs. Toft married Daniel Jenifer she gave birth to a son Daniel of St. Thomas Jenifer, who under the old law of primogeniture would inherit all of her former lands, together with the new ones which were then in the joint names of Daniel and Ann Jenifer. Perhaps it my be assumed that Ann became concerned now for the future of her daughters and so prevailed upon her husband to make a definite provision for them. At any rate, on 15 July 1672 Daniel and his wife Ann "lately called Ann Toft" recorded a document to the effect that 5,000 acres of Gingoteague were to be set aside for them; Daniel was to retain title. Until the said children shall arrive at their aforesaid several and respective ages of 17 years . . . Furthermore in case the said Arcadia, Attalanta and Annabella or any of them shall marry before the aforesaid age of 17 years is arrived without the consent and good liking and approbacon of the said Daniell and Anne their Mother, then she or they so offending shall have no share nor interest in any of the premises before given.

Anecdote1670 Ann Toft was one of the wenches named in JoAnn Riley McKey's books taken from Accomack County Court Orders. Even though she owned a huge plantation and many servants, had a head for business and enjoyed a privileged lifestyle. All the evidence indicates that she was also the mistress of Col. Edmund Scarburgh, the county's most powerful justice. The records cover her business dealings, but barely touch her personal life. Thanks to her well-placed friend, she was effectively shielded from the court and from us.31

Scarburgh said it would be good pay, and Ann agreed. When Elizabeth told Hinman, he seemed very glad. Later Elizabeth heard Hinman say that Capt. Jenifer advised him to "arrest" the administrators [of Scarburgh's estate], and if they would not pay him, then to "arrest" Jenifer and he would "sue his bond of the administrators" and make them pay him.

At any rate, on 15 July 1672 Daniel and his wife Ann "lately called Ann Toft" recorded a document to the effect that 5,000 acres of Gingoteague were to be set aside for them; Daniel was to retain title. Until the said children shall arrive at their aforesaid several and respective ages of 17 years . . . Furthermore in case the said Arcadia, Attalanta and Annabella or any of them shall marry before the aforesaid age of 17 years is arrived without the consent and good liking and approbacon of the said Daniell and Anne their Mother, then she or they so offending shall have no share nor interest in any of the premises before given.

Biography*The names in the Ayres-Eyres family in Colonial Virginia were submitted to the genealogist, Mr. Bower Marsh of London, by Henrietta Ayres Dawson, asking if, in his opinion, they were the same family as that of Wiltshire in the Visitation of London. He promptly replied that "they were the same people, no such accident could ever have happened that two families would follow the same given names," and by his definite opinion if was so formed. He provided the wills of Henry Ayres dated 20 Jan 1656, pewterer of London; the will of Henry Ayres dated 13 Oct 1645 of Ware, County Hertford; and the will of Henry Ayres dated 19 Jul 1661 of London. This surname was written in the early public records of the Colony of Virginia the same as in records in England, as Ayres, Aires, Airs, Ayre, Ayers, Eyre, Eyers, Eires and Eyres. Many Ayres (Eyres), also Trueloves, came to Virginia, and were listed in the Virginia Council as early as 1621. Some returned to England, as found in "Abstract of the Proceedings of the Virginia Company of London 1619-1624," by Conway Robinson, edited by R.A. Brock, Volume I. 
Birth*1632John was born in 1632 at Ware, County Hertford, England. He was born 30 miles from London in the parish of Munden Freville, otherwise known as Munden Parva (Little Munden), in the county of Hertford, England..2,3 
Will - Father's*13 October 1645John was named in his father's will on 13 October 1645 at Ware, County Hertford, England. He was shown as a son John (under age 21) in the will of Henry Ayre of Ware, Co Herford, England..4 
Oath to England*25 March 1651He took the oath of allegiance to hereby engage and promise to be true and faithful to the Commonwealth of England as it is now established without King or House of Lords on 25 March 1651 at Northampton Co, VA. He was shown as John Ayres.5 
Anecdote*1651 John Ayres, Mr. William Ayres, Mr. Edmond Ayres, Richard Ayres and Mr. Francis Ayres came from England between 1651 and 1657 to that part of Virginia along or between the Rappahannock and Potomac Rivers. The exact dates when each first set foot upon Virginia soil are not known, but the dates on which the headrights of these adventurers from England were converted by others, to whom those rights had been sold between 1651 and 16 Jul 1657, into grants of land at times of varying lengths between those years are known. Mr. Edmond Ayres and Richard Ayres both appear as having arrived at about the same time, and Mr. Francis Ayres first appears of record in the same region in the same year. The headrights of these three gentlemen were each converted into land on the same day, those of Edmond and Richard being so converted by the same purchaser, while that of Francis was acquired by another buyer, which same buyer converted into land the headright on a John Ayres on the same day that he received land for the headright of the same Francis. Thus the headrights of these four close kinsmen were all converted into land on the 15 Jul 1675. John Ayres was the first to be mentioned in the public records. He was the only one of the five who in March 1651/2 was found to be present ashore in Virginia when he was called on by county officers to take the oath of allegiance to the government of England.6 
Anecdote25 March 1652 John Ayres first appeared in America records on 25 Mar 1652 in Northampton County when he took the oath of allegiance to the then new government of their old home country and its colonies. Everyone of the age of 18 years or more was required to take the oath promising to be true and faithfull to the Commonwealth of England as it is now established without King or House of Lords. Among those signing in N'hamp County on 25 Mar 1652 (the first day of the year 1652) were Jno. Ayres, Nathan'll Littleton, Edm. Scarburgh, Tho. Johnson, Georgius Hacke and Stephen Charlton. Among those signing 5 days later were Jno. Custis, Jno. Johnson Jr., Jno. Johnson Sr., Rich Hill, Charles Scarburgh, James Atkinson, Wm. Gower, Wm. Jorden & Rich. Kellam.7 
Tithable list*6 February 1655John was on the list of tithables at Lancaster Co, VA, for on 6 February 1655. He was taxed for having 3 adult persons in his abode either ashore or on board his vessel. They were evidently himself, his newly-married wife and probably Henry Peters, who seems to have been in the employ of John Ayres for this same Henry Peters had previously arrieved in Virginia before 10 Mary 1652 and then was a headright for Capt. Richard Hill of Northampton & Westmoreland Counties..8 
Marriagecirca 1655He married Joan Gowers, daughter of (father of Joan & Wm) Gowers, circa 1655. According to Ayres, Dawson & Allied Families the Gowers records of Lancaster and Rappahannock Counties indicate the reason William Gowers bequeathed the principal part of his estate in 1668 to the children of John Ayres, the Master Mariner, was that John's first wife Joan, was a sister of William Gowers, and born in England..9 
Land patented*24 October 1655John patented land on 24 October 1655 at Rappahannock River. It was on this date that John Ayres was granted 250 acres on the North side of the Rappahannock River above the plantation of Mr. Wm. Smart for transportation of 5 persons: Barbaby Johnson, James Pearson, Thomas Hart and Elnor Hart. On 6 Oct 1658 James Brenett was granted 200 acres upon South side of the Rappahannock River begining upon a branch near land of William Clapham, which had been granted to John Ayres on 24 Oct 1655, assigned unto said Brennett & Peter Johnson & now renewed for transportation of 4 persons. According to a certificate of land granted to Jo: Eyers on 6 Aug 1655 in Lancaster County, the 4 persons were John Tayler, Elnor Gill, Joan Eyers and Hen: Peeters..10,8 
Will - GrFath's*20 January 1656John was named in his grandfather's will on 20 January 1656 at London, England. He was shown as a grandchild John Ayres in the will of Henry Ayres, pewterer of London..4 
Land bought*16 June 1657John bought land on 16 June 1657 at Westmoreland Co, VA. It was on this date that John Aires bought from Rice Jones all my right title & interest of plantation and the patent that doth belong to me with all houses and orchards. This was the Patent of 88 acres in Lancaster County that was recorded on 2 Sep 1652 upon the north side of the Rappahannock River, north & west upon the land of Edward Harris, dec'd, & south by east upon a creek dividing this and land of Richard Coleman for the transporation of 2 persons: George Slight & Robert Parry..11 
Headright*15 July 1657John was named as a headright on 15 July 1657 at Potomac River. It was on this date that both John Ayres and Francis Ayres were listed among 10 persons who were transported into the colony by Peeter Smith when he was granted 500 acres in Petomeck freshes, Northerly upon a creek above Col. Speakes land & Southerly upon land called Gosnells land..12 
Land sold*21 December 1657John sold land on 21 December 1657 at Westmoreland Co, VA. It was on this date that John Ayres sold the land he bought from Rice Jones on 16 Jun 1657 to Francis Jordan..13 
Land surveyed*28 January 1662John's land was surveyed on 28 January 1662 at Rappahannock River. It was on this date that Robert Smith & Nich. Smith were granted 225 acres in the forset between the Rappahannock Patomeck Rivers, beging on a point between two branches of Nominy River. The said land being surveyed for John Ayres, by him assigned to said patentees & due for the transportation of 5 persons..14 
Land sold16 February 1662John sold land on 16 February 1662 at Tappahannock, Essex Co, VA. It was on this date that John Aiers and his wife Joane sold Henrick Lucas 326 acres for 3,000 lbs tobacco. On 20 Oct 1663 John and Joan Aier named Mr. Allex Fleming our true and lawfull attorney to acknowledge for and in our behalf all our right & title in a parcell of land sold to Henrick Lucas. This was the last transaction signed by Joan Ayres, who evidently died soon thereafter. This Alexander Fleming died a few years later and his widow, Joyce, married Capt. Lawrence Washington, who was buried in 1677 at Wakefield beside his elder brother Col. John Washington..15 
Land patented13 November 1662John patented land on 13 November 1662 at Rappahannock Co, VA. On 12 Oct 1665 Martin Johnson of Rappahannock County & Sittingborne Parish was granted 326 acres & 40 poles on south side of Rappahannock River, begining at devident of land of Jno. Ayer, S.S.W. to W. side of a creek dividing this from land of Valentine Allen &c. This had been granted to Jno. Ayres on 13 Nov 1662 & by him sold to Henry Lucas of the same county & by him sold to said Johnson. (NOTE: John Ayres had established his quarters ashore on 1655 in Sittenbourne Parish, Rappahannock County, on the south side of the Rappahannock River and his land on the north side of the river was in the parish of North Farnham.)16,17 
Headright23 February 1663John was named as a headright on 23 February 1663 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that Jno. Ayres was on a list of 20 persons transported into the colony by Richard Hill Senior who was granted 1,000 acres at Hunting Creek bounded on the North by said Creek, running Westerly down the same & Southerly towards Deep Creek..18 
Tithable list1663John was on the list of tithables at Accomack Co, VA, for in 1663. John Ayres was first shown on the Tithables in Accomack County in 1663 with 3 tithables. In 1665 he was show as Jno. Eyre with 4; in 1666 as Jno Eyres with 2; in 1669 as John Ayres with 2; in 1670 as Jno. Ayres with 3; in 1671 as John Ayres with 2; in 1674 as John Ayres with 3; in 1675 as Jno Ayres with 3; in 1676 as Jno Ares with 3; in 1678 as Jno Ares with 2; in 1679 as Jno Ayres with 2; in 1680 as Jno Aires with 3; in 1680 in Capt. Hill's precinct as Jno Ayres with 2; in 1685 in Capt. Hill's precinct as Jno Ayres with 3; in 1687 in Capt. Hill's precinct as Jno Ayres Senr. with 3 (implying that his son John Ayres Junior was recognized as of legal age); in 1688 Capt. Hill's precinct list did not show a John Ayres, perhaps he and his son John were away at sea..19 
Land sold6 April 1664John sold land on 6 April 1664 at Rappahannock Co, VA. It was on this date that John Ayres made his first sale of land without his wife Joan providing her release of dower rights, as she was then dec'd. This land was granted to John Ayres on 24 Oct 1655 when Joan was his wife. So John alone conveyed the grant of 250 acres on the north side of the Rappahannock river to Capt. Alexander Fleming, who on 3 Mar 1664 had the land confirmed or patented direct to himself..20 
Marriage*after 6 April 1664He married Mary Hill, daughter of Capt. Richard Hill and Mary Drake, after 6 April 1664 at Westmoreland Co, VA. They were likely married at the home of the bride's parents at Wakefield, Washington Parish, Westmoreland Co, VA where Capt. Richard Hill and his wife Mary lived until Nov 1665 when Richard Hill and wife Mary agreed to sell to Robert Porter and Peter Gramer the 250 aces where we now live on Fishing Dreek (later Pope's Creek) between the land of Richard Griffin and Lawrence Abbington (the site where George Washington was born in 1731/2)..21,22,23 
Anecdote28 September 1664 On 28 Sep 1664 James Browne, of Rappahannock County, was granted 346 acres on the south side of the Rappahannock River, begining at lower side of land of Wm. Grey by a branch sied, running West &c. S.S.E. parallel to land of Jno. Ayres &c. 200 due by former grant & the residue adjoining dure for transportation of 3 persons.24 
Land patented25 September 1665John patented land on 25 September 1665 at Rappahannock River. It was on this date that John Ayres was granted 378 acres on south side of Rappahannock River in the freshes, begining at S.W. corner of land belonging to Jno. Meder, running S.S.W. &c. to trees dividing this and land of Robt. Davies, thence N. 42 perches, W. 80 perches to a branch of Potobaco Creek, thence N.N.E. to land of Jno. Medar &c. for transportation of 8 persons into the colony..25 
Land sold11 July 1666John sold land on 11 July 1666 at Sittenbourne Parish, Rappahannock Co, VA. It was on this date that John Ayres sold out his home and 561 acres on the Rappahannock River. The distance from the head of Pope's Creek in Westmoreland County where his father-in-law Richard Hill lived southward to the Rappahannock River nearly opposite the Ayres' land, is between five and six miles. That is the narrow part of the peninsula and where the Rappahannock is narrower than a half-mile. John Ayres' headquarters was near Tappahannock in the present county of Essex. He had acquired 6 separate tracts of land in Rappahannock County comprising 1,318 acres altogether. Evidently sometime before leaving Rappahannock County John Ayres acquired some wharfage, storage for tobacco, etc. in Accomack County as he was assessed on having besides himself, 2 persons in this service in 1663 in Accomack County. Both Richard Hill and John Ayres removed to Accomack County, as one outcome of this marriage, and there they remained close together on adjoining estates throughout the remainder of their lives..26 
Heir - named as*31 July 1668John was named as an heir on 31 July 1668 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that William Gowers named Francis, John & Patience Ayres, children of John Ayres, in his will..27 
Land patented9 October 1672John patented land on 9 October 1672 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that Jno. Ayres & Xpofer (Christopher) Thompson were granted 600 acres in N'hamp Co (now Acccomack Co) adjacent to Capt. Richard Hill's land in forker neck at head of Hunting Dreek for transporting 12 persons: John Eyres 8 times, Robert Davis, Edward Broadway, Richard Lewis and George Youngman. A certificate had been granted in the upper part of N'hamp Co on 16 Oct 1671 to John Eyres for 650 acres for transporting 13 persons: John Eyres himself 8 times; Robert Davis, Edw'd Broadway, Richard Lewis, George Youngman & Robert Youngman. Christopher Thompson and John Ayres became partners in maritime enterprises, John Ayres being the Master Mariner and Thompson the partner ashore. The friendship between the two lasted for 30 years and after the death of John Ayres, Thompson married John Ayres' widow..28 
Anecdote20 February 1677 According to the Journals of the House of Burgesses of Virginia, 1659/60-1693, p. 81, At a Grand Assembly began at Green Spring on 20 Feb 1676/7 the following orders of public charge were made and allowed ... to John Ayres - 700 lbs tobacco. This was evidently for his roll in transporting men and the necessities arising because of a temporary change in the seat of government back and forth between the mainland and the Eastern Shore. There was some delay in payment and on 16 May 1678 in Accomack Court "upon the petition of John Aires setting forth that he was in the countries service himself and boat over the Bay at Jamestown 30 days & having made oath to the same and also that hath rec'd no satisfaction certificate is accordingly granted him to the next assembly."29 
Anecdote1679 In 1679 John Ayres had sailed to the island of Barbados in the West Indies. Evidently Joseph Holt, an indentured servant on Barbados had completed his term of service and obtained a license to leave that island. An original manuscript in the Archives Division of the London Guildhall has this entry: "Barbardos-Tickets. A list of what tickets have been granted out of the secretary office of the island aforsaid for the departure off this island of the several persons hereafter mentioned, beginning in Jan 1678/9 & ending in December following, viz: 29 Oct 1679, Joseph Holt in the sloop Hopewell for Antegoa, John Ayres Commander." Antegoa, 480 miles north of Barbados, via the route inside of the Leeward Islands, was about 1/4 of John Ayres' journey back to Cape Charles, Virginia.30 
Anecdote16 December 1680 On 16 Dec 1680 in Accomack County Mr. Samuel Taylor came to court and voluntarily confest judgement to John Ayres for 312 lbs of good ffatt nett porke to be paid on demand according to an obligation under the said Taylor's hand bearing the date of 13 Oct 1680.31 
Will - Witnessed*25 March 1687He witnessed a will on 25 March 1687 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that John Ayres, Thomas Rila, & John Cary witnesssed the will of Finla MackWilliam.32 
Anecdote2 July 1692 On 2 Jul 1692 in Accomack County, John Aires registered his cattle mark.33 
Will - Witnessed1 August 1696He witnessed a will on 1 August 1696 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that John Ayres & Nicholas Hill witnessed the will of Thomas Riley Sr.34 
Death*after 14 January 1702John died after 14 January 1702 at Accomack Co, VA. It was on this date that John Ayres and his eldest son, John, Junior, put aboard a vessel, probably their sloop Hopewell, 11 or 12 head of cattle and sailed for Jones County in Pennsylvania (now Kent County, DE). As the destination could not be reached by way of Chesapeake Bay, the voyage must have been outward around Cape Charles, up the Atlantic coast, and into the Delaware Bay. Upon embarking John Ayres had two of his sons, who remained at home, and two independent witnesses sidned and filed for recordation in the Clerk's Office of Accomack a manifest of their cargo and their destiniation, doubtless as a precaution in view of the hazards of the sea in winter. It was recorded in Acc Co Deeds & Wills, 1692-1715, page 272: "Account of cattle for John Ayres which are to be transported from this county to Jones County, in Province of Pennsylvania, 4 Cows and calves and one cow with calf; 3 two year old heifers; 2 yearlings; all marked with one mark; crop on ye left ear two slitts, tow slitts under and overbit on ye right and underbit." Signed Francis Ayres, Edmun Ayres, William Willett & Wm. Chance. What happened on this voyage is unkown, other then neither John Ayres or his son John returned alive.
.2,21 
Burial*His body was interred at Ayres Monument, Greenbush, Acc Co, VA. A memorial stone was observed in the autumn of 1937 on the farm of Mr. Fletcher Scott, near Drummond's Mill, west of Greenbush, which read "In memory of John Ayres, Mariner, of Rappahannock County, Virginia, who settled in Accomack, was born 1666, died 1702." In turn Henrietta Ayres Sheppard erected a family memorial which is shown on Whitelaw's tract A87A, which shows him as John Eyres (Ayres), mariner of Rappahannock County, Virginia, who settled in Accomac before 1666 and died circa 1702..21,35
