Family 68-pg 68641
Edward came from Chichester, England, aboard the "Anne" in 1623, and settled at Pymouth, later moving to Eastham. In the year of his arrival, he held four acres of land for a garden plot on the other side of the Eel River. In 1627, there was a division of cows and goats and Edward was in the12th group which consisted of the Jenneys, Robert Hicks, his wife and children (Margaret, Samuel, Ephraim, Lydia and Phebe), and Stephen Deane; he drew the big line-back cow brought over on the Anne. In that same year of 1627, there was a division of land which had not previously been divided, and 20 acres were allotted to each person. Edward was one of the surveyors appointed to lay out the lots, the others being William Bradford, Edward Winslow, John Howland, Francis Cook and Joshua Pratt. He was one of the Purchasers and was on the 1632/33 Freeman List, and taxed 12s. With Myles Standish and others, Edward Bangs was chosen in 1633 to divide the meadow in the Bay equally. He was also on committees to assess the entire Colony for public costs, and he also served on various juries and other public service committees. He appears to have been a man who was responsible and trusted. In Oct 1636, he sat on a jury to try "actions and abuses". In the following year, he was one of the Great Inquest, or Grand Jury, sworn to enquire of all abuses within the body of the Government. The next year, he was appointed with the Governor and Assistants, and Stephen Hopkins, as a committee to divide the meadow grounds. In 1639, he was appointed by the Court as an arbitrator between samuel Gordon and Thomas Clark and he was sometimes overseer of the guard against the Indians. Edward moved to Nauset with the Prence group, and in 1647, he was supervisor of highways there. In 1652, he became a Deputy for Eastham, and in 1657, was licensed to sell wine and strong waters in Eastham "...provided that it bee for the refreshment of the English and not to bee sold to the Indians..." In a deed of 22 Jun 1651, he was joined as a Grantor by his wife Rebecca. He made his will on 19 Oct 1677 at the age of 86.640
