Joseph Edgerton was son of Richard Edgerton (b. 10 Mar 1664/5 Norwich - d. 29
Jun 1729 Norwich) m. 4 Jan 1690/1 Norwich to Elizabeth Scudder (d. 20 Dec 1762
Norwich).

This Richard was son of the immigrant Richard, b. possibly in Brook, Kent on 22
Nov 1622, d. Mar 1691/2 Norwich, m. 7 Apr 1653 Old Saybrook to Mary Sylvester.

There are theories as to the ancestry of Elizabeth Scudder and Mary Sylvester,
but I have seen no documentation. It is thought that Elizabeth Scudder was
sister of Mary/Mercy Scudder of Norwich, wife of Joseph Lathrop (whose mother
was also an Elizabeth Scudder), but here again proof is lacking.
