Parents: Thomas and Margery (Wheeler) Thayer.

There appears to have been two Thayer/Tayer children with similar names, Wilfry & Welfry. According to "Genealogies of the Families of Braintree, Mass., 1640-1850," pg 1617, Welfry was baptized 20 May 1621 and buried 10 Jul 1621 or 12 Jun 1622. According to "English Origins of New England Families," Wilfrey was baptized 1 Jan 1599/1600 (pg 469) and buried 10 Jul 1621 (pg 473) while Welfry was baptized 20 May 1621 (pg 470) and buried 12 Jun 1622 (pg 473). The details in "English Origins..." come from church records, so are probably more accurate.
