I have seen reference to Thomas and Susan Riddlesdale as his parents. Others show a Thomas and Anne Olmstead. And there are different versions about the parents of Thomas. Can anyone set me straight about this line? >> Hi Elizabeth, Edward's parents are not known; neither is the surname of his wife Anne. "Goodale" is one of the contenders (also "Swayne"} none but has been proven. Regards, Mary Moore
