Have you seen the info on the Slocums (various spellings) at www.my-ged.com? There were several Giles' listed, one as being the son of Anthony and - Harvey, born in Somersetshire England, married a Joan and died in 1682. This one was the father of Hon. Giles, Johanna, John, Ebenezer, Nathaniel, Peleg, Samuel, Mary, Eliezer. Another Giles (Slocombe) is listed as the son of Philip and Charity Bickham. He was christened 28 Sep 1623 in Old Cleeve, died in 1683 in Portsmouth, RI, married Joan Cook. The same children are listed. This entry has "Search for the Passengers of the 'Mary and John'" listed as a source. The first Giles doesn't have a source listed. Is this Giles just compiled from the old information that was part of all the initial confusion? It's interesting to see all the information out there that may be outdated and no longer correct and is still causing problems for people researching their families.
