I believe James Toone, Jr., son of the immigrant James Toone, Sr. was by his father's first wife, name unknown. The below document may shed some light on her, but I've not been able yet to trace this James Yeoman fella. The date in 1662 shows James Jr. is alive by then, and other records for James Sr.'s second wife Ann, widow of Andrew Dew in 1663 seem to indicate she has yet to remarry.
