Francois de Marets, or de Mares, as his name appears, was born about the year 1555. At Norwich he was a lieutenant of the Walloon Militia, a body to which the colonists were entitled. He probably lived the last years of his life at London, where most of his children are found registered in the French Church.

Francois de Mares married twice. His first wife, Elisabeth Herbecq, died between 1601 and 1604. On December 24, 1604, he remarried at Norwich with Phebe du Rieu.

Of the first marriage there were five, of the second, six children. Only the last child of the first and all the children of the second marriage were baptized in the Walloon Church of Norwich.

On September 10, 1605, Francois de Mares transferred for himself and for his minor children, named Jacques, Jean, Elisabeth, Anna and Esther, represented by their guardians, Nicolas de Mares and Philip Carlier, to Jean de Mares, son of Nicolas, rsiding in the Land of Cambray, the fief of Cauroit, near Cambray, inherited by him from his father, Jacques de Mares, in 1604. Witnesses to this transaction were Nicolas de Mares and Louis de Mares, brothers.

The children of Francois de Mares were:

1. Jacques, born about 1590

2. Jean, born about 1592

3. Elisabeth, born about 1598

4. Anna, born about 1598

5. Esther, born at Norwich and baptized there, May 24, 1600

Those of the second marriage were:

6. Daniel, baptized Dec. 8, 1605

7. Judith, baptized Jan. 4, 1607

8. Simon, baptized Aug. 28, 1608

9. Janne, baptized Aug. 26, 1610

10. Marie, baptized Aug. 11, 1612

11. Phebe, baptized Dec. 19, 1613

Des Marets-210 and Marets-11 appear to represent the same person because: This is the oldest paternal ancestor in this chain in need of a merge. No tree conflicts. From this we need to keep the Herbecq marriage married 1590 in Cambray, Nord, Hainaut, France. Thanks!
