Exactly.   Then they would have been around when they got married in 1668.

Google books -
Memoirs: containing a genealogical and historical account of the ancient and honourable house of Stanley ...."
Author John Seacome, published 1741.

Had a cursory check - but a number of Thomases mentioned.

jonw65, thank you for this. Now I have an actual document.  I did find John Drake listed in the book you sent me.

Was the Stanley family prominent?

There are many Stanley families, some prominent others not so.

"Your" jane appears to be a Stainsby, not a Stanley.

It seems to say that Jane was of Elvetham. Which is in Hampshire.
