Recent research has found the probable origins of woman who is named in Richard Lanphear's will as his wife Averina. Use of modern technology allowed researchers Patricia Law Hatcher and Michael J. Leclerc to search the online version of the International Genealogical Index for any Averina who married a Richard during the right period. Their search turned up the record of the following marriage: "Averen Vibert to Rich. Lansere, 27 October 1639, Southampton, Hampshire"[1]

Averina's father was deduced from a study of the probate records of Hampshire. In his will dated February 1640/1, Abrahan Vibert, a tailor of Southampton, made bequests to his sons Richard, John the elder, Abraham, John the younger; his daughters Averin, Audrea, Jone; and his now wife, Jane.[1]

Note

Abraham Vibert was a tailor of Southampton, Hampshire England. In February 1640/1, he made his Will, in which he made bequests to his sons Richard, John the elder, Abraham, and John the younger; his daughters Averin, Audrea, Jone; and his now wife, Jane.

In 1631, he was called at tailor and a victualler. He had children:

Averina, born about 1612, married George Lanphear October 27, 1639 Richard, born about 1620 Jane, born about 1622 John (the elder), baptized at St. Michaels parish, Southampton on May 23, 1624 Abraham, baptized at St. Michaels on August 16, 1630 John (the younger) baptized at St. Michaels on April 7, 1633 Audrea, born after 1619 and probably about 1634 Joan, baptized as "Jone" at St. Michaels on January 14, 1635/6 William, baptized at St. Michaels on March 20, 1638/9 and buried there May 4, 1640 Abraham was buried at St. Michaels on February 15, 1640/1. His will was probated on May 23, 1641. Given the identification in his Will of Jane as "my now wife" and the fact of two children were given the named John, there is the implication that Jane was not his first wife, however when he married Jane, the identity of his first wife/wives and which children belong to which wife is not known.
