Oakley, Ambrose, Jarmin family

Robert has left this comment on the original entry; I'm republishing it here to see if anyone can help.

Can someone answer a question for me?

During research into my Jarmin family history I have identified an ancestor that is recorded on ancestry.co.uk as "Johes Jarmin, son of Sir Ambrose who married Alice Elliot".
I have no documentary proof that Johes is the father of my ancestor other than the numerous entries on many online family trees.

I have tried to find 3rd party confirmation of the lineage and have checked the Jarmin entry in "The baronetage of England by William Betham" published in 1803. However, it makes no mention of a Johes as a son of Sir Ambrose but it does mention a John who married a Margaret Stanley and it also says that John died without children.

I know that poor entries on ancestry.co.uk can be replicated at speed and soon become 'fact' and I wondered if this mysterious Johes is one such entry.

Can anyone shed any light?
