Birth*

Jane GREY was born in 1728 at Mere, Wiltshire, England; She is allocated as the unnamed child of unknown sex of John GREY, baptised in 1729, by a process of elimination.

There were three burials in Mere of people named Jane GREY - one was the wife of William GREY (1729), one was NFI and is assumed to be the mother of 3 illegitimate children and one was a child of George & Mary GREY in 1809. There is only one baptism of Jane GREY in the 13 parishes surrounding Mere in the right time frame.

She is NOT allocated as the infant baptised in 1732, partly because it would be a very young age at marriage, but also because a Jane GREY had three illegitimate children after the marriage of this Jane GREY.

Her birth year is adjusted down to 1728 as there was only a 5-month gap between her baptism and that of her next youngest sister, whereas there was a gap of 3 yrs b/w her baptism and her older sister's.
