Biography

John was born about 1625. He was the son of Thomas Colby and Mary Hobart.

John Married Anne Arthur, daughter of John Arthur of Wiggenhall St. Mary [1]

He passed away about 1656.

Research Notes

Both the birth and death dates are estimates only, based on his potential age at the birth of his daughter, Mary. There is a record of his wife, Anne, having remarried by the time Mary married in 1884 so his death had to have been prior to this time.
