For the story of widow Martha and her children (James, John, Jeremiah,
Mehitable, and Martha) see http://tinyurl.com/ksnz3 .

The IGI shows the following baptisms at Epping, Essex:

James Beard, son of James and Martha, bapt. 8 Oct. 1626
Martha Beard, dau. of James, bapt. 12 April 1629
John Beard, son of James, bapt. 24 April 1631

The Beard family was in fact from Epping.
See NGSQ 64: 219, which includes a lawsuit
about the family.

I suspect that Martha (Wood) Beard is a cousin of Mary Wood, wife of
Richard Platt, as they both emigrated from the Epping/ Roydon area at
the same time.
