Biography
Joyse Barker was born probably in Nottinghamshire, England before 1596 to make her aged at least 16 years at her marriage.
She married William Frost, a cordwainer at the church of St Mary Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England on 20 April 1612. [1]
The same day [the xx Aprill] Will'm Froste & Joyse Barker maryed
William and Joyse were parents of eight children, three of whom died as children. Apart from the eldest son Daniel, all the other children were baptised at the church of Nottingham St Peter:
- St Mary 17 Jan 1612/3 "January 1612: The xvij day Daniell the sonne of Will'm Froste baptized'

Burialles AD 1634: Joyse ye wife of William Frost the 23 day of May
Research Notes
This Joyse Barker is very unlikely to be the daughter of John Barker of Nayland, Suffolk. John had a daughter Joice who already has her own profile. If it transpires that this Joyse is the same person, she can be merged in. In the meantime she will be detached.
References to the baptism of a Joyce Barker of Neen Savage, Shropshire also removed.

I have the sources for the marriage of William and Joyse in Nottingham, and her burial, and the baptisms of some of the listed children. It would seem that Joyse was of Nottingham rather than Suffolk, or as it says in her bio, of Neen, Shropshire. If there is any new sourced information which should be added to this profile, please do join the conversation.
