I have put in the "facts" re his baptism because I could not find any other baptisms for a William Timms, son of an Edward Timms, at the right time. Clearly this is speculation on my part as is the "fact" that he was the William Timms of Cherington who married Judith Gardiner.

Note N480 Index

He was baptised on January 4, 1601. Of course, that was really January 4, 1602. When he was born is unknown.

Note N481 Index

There is a Thomas Tymmes of Cherington who married an Elinor Izod of Blockley on February 2, 1652. Given that his brother Edward married a Jane Harris there on August 6, 1636, it is possibly him.

Notes

Note N482 Index

The family name is spelled Tymmes in the parish registers for this event.

I have to wonder if Mary Married a man named Archer. I say that as there is a Timms Archer in Stourton who had a son Matthew buried there on June 22, 1638. The only problem with that is that for Mary to have married an Archer and then had a son, who in turn had a son buried in 1636, seems not enough time. It is more likely to have been one of the Tymes from Sutton under Brailes who moved to Ascot.

There is a marriage of Edward Tymmes of Cherrington to Jane Harris of Paxford on August 3, 1636. This sounds very promising

I have put her father a William Harris due to the baptism of Jane, daughter of William. However, there is another Jane, daughter of Thomas and Anne Harris baptised on November 10, 1614. William and his wife Jane Harris have many, many children

I have reasomn to bleive that Margaret Dickins is in error in her work A Little History of Cherington, written in 1934. She makes several references to the marriage of Margaret Tymes of Cherington and Anthony Dickins of Broadway. As the only child of Edward Tymes of Cherington who died in December 1639, she inherited all of his property in Cherington. By cross referencing this will with that of Edward Tymes of Cherington who died in either October or November 1630, it clear that the Edward Tymes who died in 1630 was the father of the Edward Tymes who died in 1639. In my view, it clear that the older Edward bought the land from Anne Tymes of Sutton under Brailes in 1616. Margaret Dickins says that it was a close called Thurlyans Close. a yard land of ground, and a house. This later became the Lower House or Dickins Dairy Edward Tymes later bought a half yard land form Nicholas Kinge in 1619.

The parish burial records seem to have her buried on August 9th; however, the date is hard to read. I have forgotten where I got her death date from - probably Margaret Dickins

The IGI has him born and baptised in Broadwater, Worcs on September 19, 1624. HIs father is shown as William Dickens. This may well be correct because there is a deed of bargain and sale in 1634 from William Sheldon, the elder of Broadway, esquire and William Sheldon his son, to William Dickins the elder of Broadway, yeoman, Mary his wife, and Anthony Dickins, their son. It makes no sense why a 10 year old boy would be mentioned in a deed. The only thing that I can think of is that William the younger had a son named Anthony as well as a brother named Anthony. HIs son married Margaret Tymes and his brother was named in the bargain and sale.

I have the will for Anthony Dickins of Blackwell of September 24, 1729. In that will, Anthony gives his estate to his cousin, Anthony Dickins of Cherington, his estate at Radway. He gives his two cousins Jane Dickins and Margaret Bury 100 pounds each. He gives his estate at Blackwell to his two nephews Anthony Dickins and Thomas Braine. He gives his sister Jane Hoydon of Roxton, widow, his estate at Treddington. He appoints his cousins William Timms of Ascot and Edward Lucas of Roxton to be his executors.

This is noted as a birth date and not just a baptism date in the Bishop's transcripts. Ditto for the Robert Savage Collection.
