Biography

Isabel's origins are unknown although the Bailey family appears with the Perkins family in some legal records of Hillmorton.

It is clear from the baptismal records of her children, that Michael Gater's wife was called Isabel. There is a marriage record from the parish church, St. John the Baptist, which is very hard to read but her name has been transcribed as Isabel Baylie.

A William Baylie married Isabell Hollier on 21 Jan 1553 in Nether Whitacre, Warwickshire, some 30 miles from Hillmorton. These are listed as her parents. However, no evidence has been given to make this connection. It is possible that they are, but until proof is offered, they should remain uncertain.

Michael Gater and Isabel Baylie, were the parents of Judith Gater, who immigrated to America in 1631 on the Lyon. Michael and Isabel were married in Hillmorton, Warwckshire, England 13 November 1576. Ann Gater who married Thomas Wright on 29 July 1600 was probably also their daughter.[1]

Michael and Isabel had the following children, who appear in the Hillmorton parish register freely available with original images at familysearch.org (the link to Judith's baptism is provided, the other children all appear on subsequent pages of the same register):

  1. Alice Gater baptized 5 Feb 1576/77, buried 22 Mar 1576/77
  2. Elizabeth Gater 1577–1578
  3. John Gater 1579–
  4. Agnes Gater 1580–
  5. Michael Gater Jr. 1583–
  6. Margaret Gater 1586–1606
  7. Judith Gater bap 19 Mar 1588/89–1654[2]
  8. Erasmus Gater 1592–1592
  9. William Gater 1593–

Isabel is assumed to be the mother of all his children as no other marriage record for Michael Gater was found in the register.

Isabel was buried 25 Oct 1617 in Hillmorton, Warwickshire so presumably died that day or shortly before.[3] This record is the only "Isabel Gater" found in the burial register through 1653 so is most likely her even though there is no notation "wife of" or "widow of". However, this register consistently fails to note relationships so this omission is not surprising.

The birthdate cannot be correct as she would have been only 10 at her marriage. There is no such baptism in the HIllmorton records for this date. and it also seems unlikely that she would be buried in London.

You are correct Jeanie, I'll fix that since I was fixing Michael Gater also.
