Check out Anderson’s article on Edward Bangs for a discussion of the claim that this Rebecca became his wife.5

In 1635 Rebecca married Edward Bangs, son of John Bangs (ca 1567-11 Feb 1633) & Jane Chavis (ca 1563-11 Feb 1633), in Plymouth, MA. Born ca 1591. Edward was baptized in Panfield, Essex, Eng., on 28 Oct 1591. Edward died in Feb 1677/8 in Eastham, MA.55

“Edward Bangs, one of the seven who began the settlement at Nausett in 1645, came over from England in the Ann in 1623, a fellow passenger with Nicholas Snow. At this period he was about thirty-two years of age, but whether a married or a single man is not positively known. In the beginning of the year 1624, it having been decided to allow each person who came over in the first three ships, one acre apiece to be laid out near the settlement as possible, for planting land, which each was to use for seven years, the records show that ‘Bangs’ was assigned four acres ‘towards Eel River,’ while Nicholas Snow was allowed the use of one acre. From this fact, it has been supposed Mr. Bangs was a married man with children at this early date. Mr. Bangs is mentioned in the records as being of John Jenney’s company, which numbered thirteen persons, and to whcih ‘the twelfth lot’ of cattle fell at the division, May 22, 1627. To this company ‘fell,’ says the recrod, ‘the great white back cow, which was brought over with the first of the Ann.’ Both Bradford and Morton say the first neat cattle were brought over in the 1624.
    “It having been decided at a court, Jan. 3rd, 1627-8, to allow every person twenty acres of land, besides the land each person had already, and Mr. Bangs, with Gov. Bradford, Edward Winslow, John Howland, Francis Cook and Joshua Pratt, was chosen with instructions to lay out the land near the water on both sides of the settlement, and to lay the lots out ‘5 acres in breadth by the water side, and 4 acres in length.’ These twenty acres laid out for each person were for tillage. At this period, no meadow ground had been divided in Plymouth. Each year the planters were shown where to cut their hay and how much, by men appointed. They now continued the same rules relative to this matter, which were satisfactory.
    “Mr. Bangs was a tax payer in Plymouth, March 25, 1633, and his tax is put down as twelve shillings. The same year, with Mr. John Doane, he was appointed to divided meadow, and in 1634, with Nicholas Snow and others, to lay out roads at Plymouth. In 1634 and 1635, he was one of the assessors of Plymouth. In 1637, ‘for Eel River’ he was appointed one of the committee to view the hay ground and assist in laying it out. Among others appointed with him were Mr. Wm. Brewster, Mr. Stephen Hopkins, Mr. John Doane of Plymouth, and Jonathan Brewster of Duxbury. He was one of the grand jury the same year, also in 1638 and 1640. In 1639, he was an arbitrator to settle a case between Samuel Gorton and Thomas Clark. In 1642, he was employed to superintend the building of a barque at Plymouth, to which he contributed one-sixteenth part of the amount reased for its construction. This vessel is supposed to have been the first built in the Colony.
    “Mr. Bangs was the first treasurer of Eastham, after the settlement in 1645. He was a surveyor of highways in 1647, 1650 and 1651, and perhaps a deputy to the court in 1652, which year he was also of the Grand Inquest. In 1657, he was allowed ‘to draw wine’ and strong water at Eastham, with instructions not to sell to the Indians. In 1658, he agreed to find”2 hoursesw and 2 men for the country’s service,’ upon the town providing ‘sufficient furniture for them.’ In 1659, he ‘promised freely’ to find ‘a man and horse with complete furniture, for the term of one year for the country’s service.’ Upon an order of the court to appoint overseers of the poor, with Nicholas Snow and Richard Higgins, he was appointed for Eastham in 1659. After this he took but little interest in public matters.
    “Mr. Bangs died at Eastham, about the last of February in the year 1677-8, at the age of about 86 years, leaving no wife. His will, a lengthy document, in which he makes known his age, bears dat Oct. 19, 1677. It was presented for proof at Plymouth, March 5, 1677-8, Mr. John Freeman and Mr. Thomas Crosby upon oath, testifying as to its being his last will. Mr. Bangs’ younger son, Jonathan, was appointed the ‘whole and sole executor,’ who, it would appear, was somewhat of a favorite with his father, from whose hands he received a good share of his landed estate, which was considerable, he having been of that favored number called ‘Purchasers or Old Comers.’ Mr. Bangs undoubtedly resided with Jonathan the last years of his life.”55
