Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/BiZ.2ACIB/235 Message Board Post: There was an Edward Springer, wheelwright, of Newport Rhode Island who married to Desire Gorham in the early 1700's. They did not have any surviving children. (John Howland of the Mayflower by Elizabeth Pearson White [1990] Vol. 1 pages 71, 72). Edward was the only Springer included in the land records of Newport, R.I. Trying to confirm when and where they lived. When did they leave Newport, Rhode Island. When and where did they die and if in deed they had ANY children. Any constructive information will be helpful and appreciated. Help me solve this once and for all.
