| | Family of Edward Sturgis |
 | | Edward Sturgis, the son of Philip, married Alice and had Alice, baptized December 23, 1619; Mary, baptized October 2, 1621; Edward, baptized April 10, 1624, who according to the tale went to New England with his father; Rebecca, baptized February 17, 1626; and, as the tree reads, 'other children born in this country'. |
 | | If his son Edward, his third child, born in 1624, according to the tree, came with his father to this country, the senior Sturgis lived to be at least one hundred years old and moreover, the wife of Edward Sturgis in America was named Elizabeth and not Alice. |
 | | It appears in the Worth Transcripts that 'John Sturgis the son of Edward Sturgis was crystned the XXVIjth of Aprill, 1578.' Assuming that this John was the eldest son, Edward Sturges was born probably about 1557. |
