===notes===

1. Thomas Kirby (c1600-1610? -1668)

The English origin of Thomas Kirby has yet to be proved, so his birth date can be only estimated. His death date, however, is recorded in the Charles Parish register. Mary Kirby signed her name as the wife of Thomas Kirby when he deeded 100 acres to Peter Plovier. This deed was recorded at York County, Virginia, court of 24 Jan. 1660/1. This appears to be the earliest documented reference to Mary Kirby. Although various family connections for Mary Kirby have been asserted, no documentation proving her family origin has yet been published. She apparently was not Mary, daughter of Thomas Ray, who was married to James Hazelgrove by 11 Sep. 1660. Mary Hazelgrove's death on 16 Mar. 1665 is recorded in the Charles Parish register.
