Edward,

I found this out from Elizabeth Yule, Genealogist (Achievements of Canterbury, Kent).  These are local Wills I cant find, and had her order them.

Wisbech wills in this index include:

   a.   Alice Edwarde [sic] widow of Edmund 1558
   b.   Edmund Edwarde 1558
   c.   John Edwardes 1469
   d.   John Edward, 1540
   e.   Mary Edwardes 1699
   f.   Philip Edward, 1534
   g.   Thomas Edwardes, 1667

Hopefully they will transcribe them for me.  Also I can email you the Wisbech GEDCOM I made sorting these individuals.  I did not include John Edwards (Sussex Visitation).  I believe him to be a brother of Bartholomew/Audrey as he mentions "my brother John" in PCC Will-1584.  John Edwards-1667 (Lancaster County, VA/London) PCC Will is probably "his son John" mentioned in his Will.  But you will see where they are as they are listed with no spouse based off the PCC Will-1584.

Thank you Edward.  I have completed the mapping of all Wisbech Edwards. 

My assumption that Edmund was the father of Thomas, was the area, time era and the only Edmond Edwards being found other than the Visitations.

btw...Robert Edwards-Will 1661... was married to Elizabeth Emmerson, and was the son of Robert and Mary Tilney.  Grandson of Bartholomew and Audrey Crosse Edwards

This was Robert Edwards m. Elizabeth Emmerson.  His father was Robert Edwards and his mother was Mary Tilney. 

His daughter were:

Mary Edwards
Ann Edwards m. Henry White
*Audrey Edwards
*Elizabeth Edwards

*One of these two married John Maye, as depicted in the Will-1661  Maye and White men are from the Maye/White family that Thomasine Crosse married.  Thomasine Crosse was Robert Edwards(Mary Tilney) Aunt.  Her sister was Audrey Crosse, Robert's mother, and Robert-1661's grandmother.  Thomasine's descendants began the Mayflower descendants through Dorothy Maye Bradford and William White.

Attachment is from:  Alumni Cantabrigienses:  A Biographical List of All Known Students, Graduates and Holders of Office at the University of Cambridge, From The Earliest Times to 1900, Volume 1: From the Earliest Times to 1751; Part 2 Dabbs-Juxton.  Edited by John Venn and J.A. Venn. Cambridge University Press, 2011. p.87

Appears this Edmond Edwards was the father to Thomas Edwards m. Katherine Crosse


*Archbishop was Mathew Parker (1504-1575)

Thank you for the tip on Thomas Edwards and Camilla Browne.  The reason I am vested in this is that in the Surry County, VA Early records, the William Edwards (1615-1673) descendants are marrying into the Browne family and are living in close proximity.  I have the Browne Virginia Family Pedigree, but there is a William Browne that is an "outlier"... he is part of the Browne Family, but not from the Virginia Patriarch, and they are marrying their cousins.  With this "closeness" in England and "closeness" in the colony around the same timeframe... maybe there is a link...

I certainly agree with you!  I do not believe Edmond is correct either.  I have found here in the States people try to make people fit and I have had to go back a prove things aren't so... Your post sparked my interest in disproving Edmond as well because I have been trying to map out all these "Wisbech Edwards" and to do not believe the "Edmond"...  I guess we are on the same quest!  I did find this today... Letters of Queen Margaret...  "Edwards" is mentioned...
