There are conflicting dates of birth for John, but if you subtract 70 (inscribed on stone as age at death) from 1725, his date of birth is in the year 1655. John's wife, Hannah, was a direct descendant of William Brewster & Mary Wentworth, Mayflower passengers. I have not yet located the grave for son: John Mayo, Jr. 1691-1742 & wife Susanna Freeman; both b. MA, Married Eastham, MA; moved to Mansfield, CT. Presumably died & are buried at that location.

Hannah's birth is 1663 or 1664. Her tombstone indicates she was 80 years old at death in 1743, so 1664 seems to be the right date. She was a descendant of William Brewster & Mary Wentworth, Mayflower passengers. I have not yet located the grave for son: John Mayo, Jr. 1691-1742 & wife Susanna Freeman; both b. MA, Married Eastham, MA; moved to Mansfield, CT. Presumably died & are buried at that location.

Notes:

There is also a John Mayo in Roxbury who lived in Leiden.

John2 Mayo (John1) was born on April 2, 1597 in Farthinghoe Parish, Northamptonshire,
England.2 He was baptized on October 10, 1597 in Farthinghoe Parish, Northamptonshire,
England.1 He married Tamisen Brike on March 21, 1618 in Leiden, Holland; marriage of Jan
Meyer, a baize worker [works with coarse woolen used to make curtains, tablecloths, linings
etc.] from England, and Timmosijn Breyck, also from England in the Reformed Church. The
witnesses were Timmosijn's mother Susanna Breyck, and her sister, Marytgen Duijck. Jan was
accompanied by Thomas Smith [Jan Meyer in Dutch is John Mayo in English; Timmosijn
Breyck is Tamisen Brike.].3 He died in May, 1676 in Yarmouth, Barnstable County, Plymouth

Rev. John Mayo, Tamsen and the five children were in Barnstable, Massachusetts in 1639 to
welcome the last of the Scituate settlers as they arrived in America. Mr. John Mayo, Samuel
Mayo and Nathaniel Bacon are on the 1640 list of first settlers of Barnstable, Plymouth Colony.
[NEH & GR 2: 64]
The Mayo's remained in Barnstable until he moved to Nausett (Eastham), Plymouth Colony, staying there from 1646 to 1654. He was the first pastor of the church there. The original site is
located on Highway #6A by the Cove Burying Ground marker of the Congregational Church. A deed by John Morton of Eastham dated May 12, 1655 sells land that partially includes an area
just beyond the dwelling house of John Mayo Junior, all of which Morton bought earlier from Mr. John Mayo Senior. (The Mayflower Descendant 9:233, Plymouth Colony Deeds p. 155)
By November 9, 1655, Rev. John Mayo's family moved to Boston where he became the first pastor of the "old North Meeting House" on Salem Street, which was the second church in Boston.

John Mayo (1597-1676) by Lynn Scott
John Mayo was born 1597 in Northamptonshire, England. (1)
At 17 he attended Magdalen Hall, Oxford University, but left without taking a degree, probably to escape taking the oath of
conformity, which was required to graduate. (2)
"In his early 20's he was in Leiden, Holland and married there: Jan Meyer [John Mayo] of England, baize-worker, accompanied by Thomas Smeth [Smith], his acquaintance, was betrothed March 21, 1618 to Timmosijn Breyck [Tamisen
Brike] of England, accompanied by Susanna Breyck [Brike], her mother, and Marytgen Duijck [Mary] her sister.
A baize-worker works with wool fabric and many Puritans in Leiden had this occupation because of the demand." (3)
John apparently went back to England and lived in North Newington, Oxfordshire, which is fairly close to Thorpe Mandeville where he was raised. (4) Throughout the 1630's there was much trouble in England. King Charles I was severely persecuting any person or group that strayed from the Church of England. Never the less, there was much dissent and there was unrest in Parliament. In 1637, and edict forbade anyone from traveling abroad without a license and plague was prevalent in 1638. Around this time, John Mayo decided to leave England and go to America. In spite of restrictions, twenty ships carrying around 3000 passengers left England for Massachusetts Bay that year. (5) John and his family arrived in Cape Cod, Plymouth Colony in the spring of 1638 or 1639. John first settled in Barnstable along with 20 other families where he became a teacher in the church and an assistant of Rev. John Lathrop. (6)
He appeared on a list of inhabitants of Barnstable in 1643 and in 1649 contributed fourteen rods of fence at Stony Cove. He and his sons Samuel and Nathaniel were listed in 1643 as being able to bear arms and saw active service in Lieut. Thomas
Dymake's Co. In 1646 he removed to Nausett (Eastham) and was pastor of the church there until 1655. (7)
At that time the meeting house was but twenty feet square with a thatched roof. In 1655 he accepted a call to Boston as the first pastor of Old North Church. (8)
While living in Boston, he owned a house and lot on Middle (now Hanover) Street 38 x 180 feet, selling it for
200 pounds in 1675 to Abraham Bording. (9) The close of the pastorate of John Mayo of the North Church in 1673 is marked in records by Increase Mather:
"In the beginning of which year Mr. Mayo, the pastor, likewise grew very infirm in as much as the congregation was not able to hear and be edified. On the 15th day of the 3rd month,
1673, Mr. Mayo removed his person and goods also from Boston to reside with his daughter in Barnstable where since he hath lived a private life."
John died in Yarmouth, Massachusetts 3 May 1676. (10) Thomasine died 1683.
