Thomas Teffe [Tefft] & Sarah Unknown
« on: Monday 11 July 05 04:25 BST (UK) »
Seeking connection of John Tefft and brother William Teffe who emigrated to Boston circa 1638. Father maybe was Thomas Teffe and mother Sarah. Don't know where in England.

William born circa 1590, death isn't known. John born circa 1614, died 1676 in US.

Know this isn't much to go on, but it is best I have right know. Hope someone can help. Also something else to throw into the mix. There may have been a sister of William and John, Sara. A recent theory suggests that maybe Sara was not a sister after all.

One last item. William's wife was Ann or maybe Anna, surname unknown. John's wife was Mary Barber born circa 1618 and died 1679 in US.

Thank you for your interest and help.

Hello, I had a quick look on Family Search and came up with these records. They don't tell a lot but at least you now know when and where Thomas and have contact details for other people researching Thomas.
Good Luck wit your search.

Thank you. That is a big help. I suspect that the information that makes William and Ann Tefft [Teffe] is erroneous. Although Wiliiam was b. 1590 and John b. 1614 and the dates might suggest parentage, John is mentioned in William's willl as brother and thus does NOT suggest a father/son relationship.

Last should read: Making William and Ann parents of John is erroneous.
