It has been claimed that a fourth son, John Aylett, emigrated to America based on a series of letters discovered by W.W. Fontaine among Aylett family papers in Virginia, the originals of which have disappeared. Noted genealogist Lothrop Withington commented that although these letters could be authentic, there are some strong reasons to suspect that they could have been forgeries that were planted to fool Fontaine, who was an avid family historian.[3] Ayloffe's third marriage was to Margaret, sister of George Porter. She remarried John Wall, of St. Clement Danes, Middlesex and died 1682.{{sfn|Cokayne|1900|p=94}}{{sfn|Wotton|Kimber|1771|p=112}} Notes1. ^History of Parliament Online - Ayloffe, Sir Benjamin, 2nd Bt. 2. ^His will is dated 19 February 1658, proved November 1662 {{harv|Cokayne|1900|p=94}}. 3. ^Lothrop Withington, Virginia Gleanings in England: Abstracts of 17th and 18th-century English Wills and Administrations Relating to Virginia and Virginians : a Consolidation of Articles from The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, Genealogical Publishing Com, 1980, p. 636-637.
