BIOGRAPHY: HENRY TYLER OF ENGLAND, was a member of an ancient Shropshire familythat is thought to have been originally from Wales, and represented in Great Britian in the elder line by the late Sir William Tyler and Sir Charles Tyler ofParliment and Admiralty.
John Henry was one of three Tyler brothers who camefrom England about 1638 - 1640. The three Tyler brothers settled separately inVA, Mass, and CT. Henry's given name was John Henry Tyler. Which makes good sense seeing that he named his children John and Henry. In turn his children namedtheir children Johns, Henrys and Moses, Charles and Job after his brothers, their uncles. The only evidence we have is an extract from Lawrence Tyler's willnaming his children. It is suspected that one of the three Tylers was not a brother but an uncle, Roger Tyler, who settled in New Haven, Conn. We place theseTylers here so we can present their family lines.
Henry, settled in Charles City, VA in 1652. In Vol. III, of the Virginia Land Register is the record of a Patent in Henry Tylers name dated Jan 7, 1652, locating 254 acres in Middle Plantation, VA, due to him by and for transporting to this colony six persons. Thisland is the land upon the Palace of the Royal Govenor was built. Henry is a descendant of Wat Tyler, according to G.C. Greer in his "Early Virginia Immigrants". Furthermore, John Tyler the 10th president of the US refers to being related to Wat Tyler, the blacksmith and English Rebel, in a speech. John Tyler, thepresident, is a descendant of Henry.
Henry Tyler lived in the outskirts of what is now the city of Williamsburg, Virginia.
At June Court 1672, Ann Tyler hisrelic, (Henry), entered a record of Deed of Gift disposing of her separate estate among her three sons, Henry, John and Daniel. There were no heirs by his first wife Mary. Two children of Henry and Anne went on to have many descendants:His oldest son, Henry Tyler stayed in VA and his line is the 10th President John Tyler's line. John Tyler the second son of Henry and Anne moved to Hanover,VA and then his line of descendants migrated to North Carolina and later to South Carolina. This line of John Tyler's can be considered "The Southern Tylers".The Tylers migrated heavily after the Revolutionary War, to Texas, Missouri, Mississippi and Louisiana.
