• Notes

  I have been able to find no evidence that he is the son of Edward Norris, Gov. of Ostend on Berkshire, England. This includes checking for any first hand records, checking autosomal DNA cousin triangulations with my Uncle, Sharon Coates Kubacki and descendants of John Norris b. 1617-1621 of England, Mass. and NY. Mary Norris, our ancestor, and John Norris of Mass. and NY have triangulations and are definitely related, even that far back in time though more than 6 triangulations. This indicates their ancestors were wealthy and intermarried in England. Mary was of Newbury whose closest possible relative was Edward Norris, Gov. of Ostend who lived 12 miles from Newbury, Berkshire, England. Descendants of she and John do NOT triangulate with descendants of Rev. Edward of Salem, Mass.
