AYLETT FAMILY TRADITION.

Communicated by William Winston Fontaine.

The following account of the first ancestor in America of the Ayletts was written for me, by my uncle, General Philip Aylett, of Montville, King Wm. Co., Va.-born Oct. 31, 1791-who re- ceived it from his father, Colonel Philip Aylett, born March 12, 1767.

WM. WINSTON FONTAINE,

Galveston, Texas.

"The tradition is that John Aylett, our first American pro- genitor, born about 1630, was a younger son of the High Sheriff of Essex County, England, during the reign of King Charles I., and that he being a devoted adherent of the King, suffered much, both in person and property; and was a prisoner in the Tower for some time. At present, I do not recall the name of John Aylett's father. It was a Bible name I remember.-Isaac, David,
