• and Mary van Oyrle.

Oxford DNB:

"Eyre [née Aldersey], Anne (1612/3–1681), account keeper, was probably the third of seven children of Samuel Aldersey (d. 1633), a London merchant and haberdasher who had traded to Nuremberg, and his wife, Mary (d. 1628), daughter of Philip van Oyrle."^[3]

On 30 March 1630 Anne married Robert Eyre or Eire or Aire (b. 1610 - d. March 1654),^[4] at Saint Antholin in Budge Row, London.^[5]

Anne and Robert had four children.^[6]. In birth order they are:-

• Sir Samuel Eyre of Newhouse (bp. 26 Dec 1633 - d. 12 Sep 1698 Lancaster),^[7] is well documented but his 3 sisters are less known.^[8]

• Ann (bp. 1638 Salisbury)

m. William Stear of London, merchant.^[4]

Death

From the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Anne passed away in 1681. She is believed to have been buried on the 17 Mar 1681.at St Micheal's Church, Hathersage, Derby.^[9]

There is insufficient information in the burial record to confirm that this is the right Anne Eyre. The year matches, but the location is burial ground is for an entirely different branch the Eyre family, which descend from Hope, co. Derby.
