    Notes 
    • He married Elsie Alice Vreeland in Bergen Reformed, Secaucus, Bergen, New Jersey, February 13, 1688. Elsie was born in Of Gamoenipa, Communipaw. She is the daughter of Enoch Michaelson Vreeland and Dircksje Meyers. The Earles of Secaucus page 175 Chapter Two EDWARD EARLE, JUNIOR. Edward Earle, Jr., was born in Maryland, probably in Calvert County, about 1665-1668. No record of his birth or baptism has been found. It is more than likely that he was christened in the Episcopal Church, as that was the church of his parents, and was the leading denomination of Maryland at that time. He was but a child when his parents removed to New York, and could not have been more than ten years old when they settled on the Island of Secaucus in 1676. So that the greater part of his life was spent at Secaucus. It was the home of his boyhood, his youth and his manhood. We cannot say of his old age, for if we have been right in our inferences as the the date of his birth, he did not live to grow old. . . .Certain it is that when still quite a young man, of perhaps twenty-one to twenty three he married a Dutch lass named Elsie (Alice) Vreelandt of Gamoenipa (this is the original of Communipaw) Banns published at the Bergen Reformed Church, Jan 29, 1688 were as follows: "Edward Earle, Young man from Maryland, living on Sikakis Island ,ad Elsje Vreeland from Gemonepa, living at Mingachque (Pamreo). A New York marriage license was issued Feb 13, 1688 to Edward Earle from Maryland lives on Sicakis Isld, and Elsje Vreeland from Gemoenipa, lives at Minkachgee." They were married by Rev Selyns of New York. Elsie held a certificate from the Reformed Church at Bergen, when the marriage is also entered. We do not know whay this double record was made. Edward Str. and his family attended the church at Bergen. and so probably did the family of Elsie as it was the leading church of the region at the time. As their home church, the banns were proclaimed there and the marriage recorded there, though there may have been some reason for obtaining the license in New York. Perhaps a visit to New York constituted their wedding trip.

    Notes 
    • Place of Birth: The birthplace of "The Great Tilse" or Doncaster, Yorkshire Etc. for Edward Sr. are purely speculation and have been proposed based on theories from the book "History and Genealogy of the Earles of Secaucus"
      There is no basis for connecting the Edward Earle who arrived in Maryland in 1662, with the Edward Earle who sailed from Gravesend England to Virginia in 1635.
      The reality is we do not have any sources for where in England Edward was born.
      Father's Name: We currently have no basis for identifying the given name of Edward Sr.'s father, nor any basis for determining where in England Edward Sr. came from. Edward Earle (abt.1590-) from Yorkshire as a speculative father for Edward Earle Sr. and has been added to many family trees.
