Name |
John Royes |
Born |
1745 |
Canterbury, Kent, England |
- A John Royes was baptised in Canterbury 24 Sep 1752, son of William and Sarah [England Births and Baptisms 1538-1975] I am assuming that this is our John Royes. [1]
- Another reference suggests born 1745, North Canterbury and gives his mother's maiden name as Taylor

silk weaver |
Died |
Jan 1780 |
Castelton, Derbyshire, England |
- A John Royes died in Jan 1780 in Castleton, Derbyshire, England and is buried there.
A John Royes was buried 17 Jan 1780 in Castleton, Castleton, Derbyshire, England.
Son Solomon said to have been fatherless from "an early age". 1780 is 6 years after Solomon's birth therefore the death we have of a John Royes in 1780 is feasible but "in Derbyshire" raises questions.

Notes |
- In view of his trade and the possibility that the Royes name may be of French-speaking origin, it is worth noting that over a 20 year period from 1670, 80,000 Huguenots came to England, majority of whom were textile, including silk, workers. By 1689 40,000 families made their living from silk. And the main silk weaving centres were Canterbury and Spitalfields.

 | 1700 ROYES The earliest known Royes - John We had previously identified John Royes 1752-1832 as our earliest Royes. We then identified his father as William Royes - no information about birth or marriage.
We have information that a William Royes was born in 1723 in Lincolnshire. But John 1752 was born in, worked, married and died in Canterbury, Kent. So this link is uncertain though not impossible. Lincolnshire William's wife is Sarah Taylor and his parents were John and Mary Royes. |
