  • Notes 
    • William Key, died June 23, 1563 in Skagelthorpe, East Riding Yorkshire, England according to the Registry of Setrington Parish, Yorkshire, England 1559-1812 p.49

      William died in Skagelthorpe, a village about 2 miles north of Settrington, but was buried in Settrington Parish cemetery. There is no proof he was the father of the Keys in Settrington, only circumstantial evidence.

      (Further references to the "Registry" will mean "The Registry of the Parish of Settrington 1559-1812" transcribed and edited by Francis Collins Knight and Forster Ltd., Printers, Leeds 1910).

      One source has William as the grandfather of Nicholas, fitting George (b 1541) in between.

      From time to time, there is discussion about John and Martha Tandy Key. His father was Martin Key B. abt 1670 and an Elizabeth (last name unknown) although I believe it to be Ford or Buford with very good reason. Most people mistakenly say that Martin Key, Sr. was married to Mary Palmer when in reality she was his mother. I am posting a rather long posting here which I generally do not do, but I feel it is very important that I do so. It takes the ancestorage of John Key back to abt. 1500 AD in Yorkshire County, England where I believe they were located as early as 1068 AD also with good reason. Any way, there are plenty of good discussions herein which I may talk about if some one twists my arm just a little bit.
      Above is from a posting on genforum, not my work.
