  • Notes 
    • This marriage or marriage intention is listed in Elder James Wilson's Marriages, but the newspaper report says the minister was Rev. Mr. Shurtleff. There is also a discrepancy in the dates, as "Family Notes" by James N. Arnold has the date as 15 September, rather than 4 September.

      The marriage intention was published on 20 & 27 Aug 1826 and also on 3 Sep 1826. At that time Edward was of Providence and Mary was of Pawtuxet.

      A descendant, Martha Adams (Remington) (Davies) Bower, has the marriage date as 4 Sep 1826.

      The cemetery information at usgwenwebarchives.net has the marriage date as 4 Sep 1826.
