miller, I think this would preclude his being a son of Thomas Baker of Sissinghurst, a gentleman.If youre interested in notable descendants of Edmund Hawes of Mass., a recent one is Sarah Palin:

She has other colonial ancestors of royal descent
including: Edward Raynsford, Audrey (Barlow) Almy,
Dr. Richard Palgrave, and Rev. Peter Bulkeley.
She descends from several Mayflower passengers,
including Brewster, Howland, Hopkins, Samson, Tilley and Warren.
Good afternoonLeslieUnfortunately that makes her a cousin of mine many times 'over'. :)
I am coming into the game late but I am looking into the background of Nicholas Butler
my 11 generation great-grandfather.
I was searching for the will of Henry Vanner, which contains references to Joyce Baker and Butler.
This is how I came upon this discussion.
What brought me here was the reference to Vanner in this post.
A somewhat nice source of material

Regards AlWhile that webpage does have some good basic information, particularly near the beginning, the attempt to connect Joyce Baker Butler to the gentry family of Baker of Sissinghurst is misguided, in my opinion. Since Joyce's father Richard Baker was a
Boulding (who married Mary Baker above) along with his own children. (25) This would mean Mary (Baker) Boulding was Joyce's sister Mary, who was mentioned in the will of Christopher Merry and Richard Baker.As a Baker-Bayes descendant, I have also to take issue with the following paragraphs:
"The Richard Baker mentioned is almost certainly Joyce's father, as the Margaret Baker mentioned afterwards is her mother. John Harker, Margaret's second husband, was also a miller of Ashford, and in his will he mentions the children of Thomas
at Dedham in New England, about 15 years before they went to Martha's Vineyard, was probably not related to Joyce (Baker) Butler.It is also likely Joyce's sister Joanne later went to New England after her sister. An "Anne Baker" married a Thomas Bayes there, and settled on Martha's Vineyard, right where Joyce and Nicholas Butler lived."
I think the writer is assuming that the name "Joanne" was identical to the modern-day "Jo-Anne," and hence that Anne could likely be a variant. Actually, the name is just plain "Joan" spelled a little elaborately. Anne Baker, who married Thomas Bayes
Yes, I agree with this. I am a direct descendent of Thomas Boulding (1592 - 1663) who married Mary Baker (sister to Joyce who m1623 to Nicholas Butler). If I read the mention of "cousin Joyce wife of Nicholas Butler of Ashford, daughter of RichardBaker deceased" in Hy Vanner's will it suggests Joyce as the connection rather than the Butler side. I think it unlikely that Richard Baker has much of a (recent) connection with the Sissinghurst Bakers. Reading various Sissinghurst Baker wills there is
It should also be noted that there is no reliable source of Richard Baker being a miller that I can find. Joyce's step-father John Harker (Hawker) was the miller of Ashford and as Richard Baker died when the Joyce was only 2 years old he would havebeen the only father she knew... Whilst various histories say Richard Baker was a miller there is no confirmation of this anywhere. Prior to living in Ashford Richard brought up his family in Stanford, Kent (11 miles from Ashford). Perhaps he married
