Biographical Note

Books
Two books with an armorial stamp attributed to him are recorded in the Armorials Database. Are they his, or from another member of his family? His father, the knight, seems a more obvious candidate, but he died in 1638, and the imprint dates of the books are 1634 and 1639. Edward's brother Nicholas, a physician, d.1637. The arms are Burton quartered with Tawke.
