Summing up my Billiou Theory

There are a variety of birth and death dates available on family trees for the various members of the extended early Billiou family. Thomas' birth ranges from 1560 to 1600; his death from 1617 to 1625.
Aimie's birth ranges from 1573 to 1585. Abigail, Ann and their spouses range from about 1580 to 1605, although little is available on Nathaniel Walker. As for Jeacq, very little is offered, probably due to lack of research. Marriage dates are documented for the girls and their nephew, Pierre Billiou.

The following is my best guess on who fits where and when.

1) Thomas Billiou [c1570 England - aft 1624 prob. Leiden, Zuid Holland, The Netherlands]
m1. unknown -c1588 England

2) Abigail Billiou [c1600 England - aft 1669 Plymouth Colony]
       m. 22 Oct 1622 Leiden - John Dunham, widower [c1588 Eng. - 2 Mar 1668/9 Plymouth Colony]

2)  Ann Billiou [c1602 England - unk.]
     m. 28 May 1624 Leiden - Nathaniel Walker, widower

m2. c1604 possibly Leiden -  Aime _______ [c1573 Spanish Netherlands? - Jul 1621 Leiden]

2) Jeacq Billiou [c1605 prob. Leiden or Wicres]
    m.  c 1623 prob. Wicres - unknown [d. bef. May 1649]

3) Pierre Billiou [c1625 Artois - c Dec 1701 Staten Island, NY]
    m. 2 May 1649 Leiden - Francoise du Bois

Thomas Billiou was a witness at the marriages of Abigail Ballou and Anneken Bailliuw, so died sometime after Ann's 1624 marriage. Jeacq was identified as a widower at Pierre's marriage.
