     † The record states that he embarked at Southampton, 1638, aged 37, with wife Ann, 32, sister dorothy, 20, and five chldren under 10 years old. This would give his birth 1601, and her 1606; but the marriage record makes them both 26 in 1629. [Genealogical Register, 1893, page 135]. Her age given in her will also makes her birth in 1603. The wife of Christopher Batt has been given "Ann Toppan, sister of Abraham Toppan." This error probably arose fromt he fact that Abraham Toppan's son married Ann Batt's daughter.      From the Biley will [page 62], and other documents, it is evident that Christopher Batt and Henry Biley of both Salisburys were cousins.
