• Notes

  Possible maiden name variants: Gamer, Gaymer, Garner. Wf of Humphrey Turner. Her name is paired with that of Humphrey Turner on a memorial to him. Lydia Gaymer was baptized in Terling, Essex, 18 May 1602, daughter of Richard and Margaret (Mason) Gaymer. She married Humphrey Turner 24 Oct 1618 in Sandon, Essex, England. She was living in Scituate MA on 23 July 1669 when she consented to her husband's deed of 1 October 1668, but had died by 28 February 1669[/70] when she was not named in her husband's will. Their 8 children: John the elder (who married Mary Brewster), John the younger (who married Ann James), Thomas, Lydia Doughty, Mary Parker, Joseph, Nathaniel & Daniel. === As reported by the Scituate Archivist: Humphrey and Lydia Turner are buried in the Men of Kent Cemetery. Sometime in the 1800s, the Turner Family purchased a memorial stone for Humphrey and his family. The delivery company unloaded it at the wrong cemetery, i.e. the First Parish of Norwell, and installed it there. When the family learned where it had been installed, they refused to pay for it until it was installed at the correct cemetery. It was never moved and remains there today, even though Humphrey and Lydia are buried elsewhere.
