The date is exactly suitable for the marriage of our Edmund Sheafe to Joan (Jordan) Kitchell, who as already indicated, probably married a second time and had one son after the death ef John Kitchell in 1602. If this is the marriage of our Edmund Sheafe, as it well may be, Joan ’s second husband was named Lake. At Hayes, Kent, Thomas son of Richard Lake was baptised 13 Mar. 1607/8. This may refer to the son and second husband of Joan (Jordan Kitchell who lived in Hayes at least until her first husband's death."
