      '''Born'''
      ca. 1620
      Marsh Gibbon, Buckinghamshire, England.

      '''Died'''
      15 AUG 1670.
      Marsh Gibbon, Buckinghamshire, England.
      Jane Clerk (aka Clarke) married James Paxon on August 16, 1640 in St. Mary's Church in Marsh Gibbon<ref>Grundy, MJP. ''Paxson/Paxton Family in England (1640-1682)''. online [http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~paxson/PaxsonEng.html rootsweb] (3/3/2015) She notes that the records from St. Mary's are the only proven information available about this generation, and that no mention of Jane or James' parents are found there</ref>. Jane was buried there as a widow August 15, 1670.<ref name=Grundy>''MJP Grundy'', citing the register of St. Mary's Church in Marsh Gibbon.</ref>
      With the exception of James, the children of James & Jane (Clerk) Paxton appear in the register of St. Mary's Church:
      # [[Paxson-92 |Ellen Paxson]], baptized April 27, 1641<ref name=Grundy/>
      # [[Paxson-88 |Alice Paxson]], baptized October 1644<ref name=Grundy/># [[Paxson-94 |Henry Paxson]], baptized January 11, 1646/7<ref name=Grundy/># [[Paxson-104 |William Paxson]], baptized December 21, 1648; married (1) Mary Sydenham; married (2) widow Mary (Packingham) White<ref name=Grundy/># [[Paxson-12 |James Paxson]]; married 1670 Jane Gurden<ref name=Grundy/> <ref>Grundy points to the unrest after the execution of King Charles I in 1649 as a possible explanation for why James' baptism is not recorded. His relationship is established by his brother Henry's will.</ref># [[Paxson-34 |Thomas Paxson]], baptized June 15, 1651; died at sea 1682<ref name=Grundy/># [[Paxson-98 |Jane Paxson]], baptized March 14, 1652/3 at <ref name=Grundy/># [[Paxson-89 |Anne Paxson]], buried February 14, 1655/6<ref name=Grundy/>
