Mrs. Myrtle Hyde had a note in NEHGR 126:298 that "[a] check of the
microfilm copy of the parish registers of Ansley, Warwickshire,
England, for baptisms between 1640 and 1655 disclosed the following

Sept. 1640; Richard, 30 April 1643; Edward, 22 May 1645; ..."

Normally, I'd be a bit discouraged to find him called "yeoman," but
Nichols, in the footnotes to his Farmer pedigree, also reproduced
