• Notes

  When Edward Bagley's daughter, Ann died in 1699, her husband, William Brinton, wrote about her life. In it he stated that Edward, her father, had died about fifty years earlier and that her family was "not of mean rank as to worldly ac" He called his father-in-law a "very honest and loving man." Edward received 30 lbs. from Elizabeth Tomlinson's nuncupative will dated July 3, 1629. Elizabeth was the mistress to Lord Dudley and all of her children were the children of this Lord. Edward was listed as "nepoti ex matre" to Elizabeth when he was assigned by the courts to be the administrator of her estate. The normal latin meaning of this term would be grandson, but according to a published authority, in this case it legally meant nephew. Which interpretation is correct is of great controversy as it determines whether Edward is a direct descendant of Lord Dudley or a descendant of Elizabeth's sister instead. He died before his father in 1645 and is buried at St. Thomas Parish in Dudley, England. Before his death, in April 1645 Edward is shown as elected one of the Overseers for the Poor in the St. Thomas Parish records. (C-1364, UA Record #:4237)
