Individual Notes
• Came to America with her uncle, Samuel Hinckley, about 1634. The Snow-Estes Genealogy has the following: “Edward Sturgis, b. England 1613; d. Sandwich 1695; m. Elizabeth Hinckley, daughter of Thomas and Anna Hinckley, with whom whe came to America.” [872, p 7]
• I have it on the highest authority from one who has actually seen the ship’s list that Elizabeth, a niece of Samuel Hinckley, came out with him and his family. She was in his household at Scituate, and I believe continued in it there, and at Barnstable for five years until the spring of 1640, when she met Edward Sturgis and married him. [1345, p 12]

Individual Notes
• [He] came from England about 1634, and in 1639 was of Yarmouth, Mass. He was the son of Philip Sturgis of England, and was the progenitor of all the Sturgises of Barnstable Co., Mass. His son, Edward, Jr., married Temperance, daughter of Capt. John and Desire (Howland) Gorham. Desire Howland was the daughter of Capt. John and Elizabeth (Tilley) Howland, both of whom were pilgrims in the Mayflower. [15, pp 780-1]
• ...it seems well here to take up the question of his marriage, of which there is no record, but judging from the age of his children it seems reasonably clear that he married first early in 1640, soon after he had gone to Yarmouth. [1345, p 11]
• The record of the births of his children is lost. At the time of his death he does not appear to have had but one son, Thomas, living. [958, p 1]

Marriage Notes
• As this brings us down to the point where his sons first appear, it seems well here to take up the question of his marriage, of which there is no record, but judging from the age of his children it seems reasonably clear that he married first early in 1040, soon after he had gone to Yarmouth. The name of his first wife was Elizabeth, who seems to have been Elizabeth Hinckley, baptized at Harrietsham, County Kent. England. 20 September 1017, the daughter of Thomas and Anna Hinckley and niece of Samuel Hinckley, [1345, p 11]
