      There are conflicting dates of birth for John, but if you subtract 70 (inscribed on stone as age at death) from 1725, his date of birth is in the year 1655. John's wife, Hannah, was a direct descendant of William Brewster & Mary Wentworth, Mayflower passengers. I have not yet located the grave for son: John Mayo, Jr. 1691-1742 & wife Susanna Freeman; both b. MA, Married Eastham, MA; moved to Mansfield, CT. Presumably died & are buried at that location. From a Find-A-Grave contributor (10/2015): other children, who are listed in the Mayflower Births & Deaths, Vol. 1&2, which are yet to be located:

      Hannah Mayo B. January 8, 1681/2
      Samuel Mayo B. July 16, 1684
      Mercy Mayo B. April 23, 1688
      Rebecca Mayo B. September 18, 1692
      Joseph Mayo B. December 22, 1696;d. April 14, 1744
