I am trying to find the parents of Edward Burgess from Arkesden Essex England born 1680. He married Mary Trigg in 1705. There is confusion over death date 1728 or 1759 still in Arkesden Essex. They had 6 children between 1708 and 1725, all in the same area.

Thank you for your reply and information about Edward Burgess. I thought George and Lettice were his parents but could not confirm until now.
