 == Summary ==
-There is a record of the 1650 christening of a "John Eckles" son of "John Eckles"; however, this occurred in Nantwich, England. It is highly unlikely all of the following hold:
-* John Echols (1619) is the father of John Echols (1650)
-* John Echols (1619) traveled to America in 1635 (substantiated by [[Genealogy: A Journal of American Ancestry]])
-* John Echols (1650) is christened in England in 1650 (substantiated by [https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F3G9-6VF?lang=en FamilySearch])
-Despite the christened John Echols in England also being son of a John Echols, it seems likely that either:
-* John Echols (1619) traveled to Virginia in 1635 (age 16) and later had a son in Virginia (in which case the christening is an unrelated coincidence); OR
-* John Echols (1650), not John Echols (1619), was the first in the line to travel to America and the [[Genealogy: A Journal of American Ancestry]] for "John Ecles" traveling to America in 1635 is unrelated.
