Biography

He was born about 1545 [citation needed] in Eyeworth, Bedfordshire, England.unlikely considering his alleged father didn't acquire Eyworth until 1594

John Anderson first married on 20 Apr 1568 at St.Magnus The Martyr in London, England to Janet Ronnald ( two years after his alleged son was born in Durham.)

John Anderson married secondly on 18 Feb 1598 in St.Giles Cripplegate, London, England to Mary Elizabeth Smith, allegedly the mother of his son born in 1566

He died on 01 Aug 1605 in Hertfordshire, England, allegedly on the same day as his alleged father.

Research notes

Dates for this family simply don't make sense, and it seems as though individuals have been put together without dates or logistics being taken into account.

John needs detaching from his alleged parents who, given his mother's age when he was born, can't have been his parents. Done

The same action should be taken with his alleged sister Ellen Davenport who has the wrong name and came from the wrong part of the country. DONE

His alleged son Edward/Edmund was born at the opposite end of the country before John married for the first time and 30 years before he married the alleged mother of his son. Edward needs detaching from his parents.

Hi Jonathan, I'm going to detach Edmund Anderson as a father from this John. The dates are wrong for the marriage of Edmund and Magdelene to be his parents.

If the dates given for the births of John and Magdalena are even approximately correct then John cannot have been Magdalena's son. History of Parliament online gives Edward as the eldest son of Edmund and Magdalena[1]
