I have seen this before, and they may or may not our family , but they do have Ann Gale's death place as Kittery Maine. As the LDS, I'm not sure in which one to believe in Reginald left England and came to America on the 'Agnes' sailed sometime after March 26, 1636, with John Winter, master, and arrived May 24, 1636. The 'Agnes' returned to England in June with a Captain Bowes as master. The passengers were: Reverend Richard Gibson, an Anglican minister from Cambridge, who was at Richmond Island; Arthur Gill of Saltash, Cornwall, at Richmond Island; Peter Gullett, at Richmond Island and died later in 1636; Andrew Heifer, at Richmond Island; Reynold Jenkins, who may have come from Broomfield, Somerset, was at Kittery; and, John Lopes and Tobias Short, who were at Richmond Island and probably returned to England. Reginald was indentured to Winter, fishing on Richmond Island, the men in Winter's employ 'there were forty-seven in 1637'slept in one of these chambers, and each man had his close-boarded cabin or bunk. Reginald was living here on the Newichawannock (South Berwick, Maine) about 1640 Reginald Reynolds Jenkins was affiliated with the Quakers from the beginning of their preaching in Dover, New Hampshire, and Kittery, Maine and he and neighboring 'Friends' (Quakers) were more than once presented at Court for not attending the services of the church on the Lord's Day. Reginald, settled in Kittery, Maine (Eliot, Maine) 1647, and took oath of allegence to Massassachusetts goverment on November 16,1652. As a quaker,in 1652, Reginald was petitioned to be under Massachusetts 'We whose names are written vunder do acknowledg our selves subject to the government of the Massachusetts Bay in New England' maybe his family didn't come to America until he became a freeman, this could cause the confusion, or other poss. is that they reported the births back to England. I have seen this often when two towns or more have been reported to be the birthplace of the same person. So at this time i am sticking with Ann Gale is the wife, Edward and Joan as the parents since the above story (Reynold Jenkins, who may have come from Broomfield, Somerset,) seem to point at this is our true ancestor, [but please continue letting me know more of your theories, because maybe we will solve this puzzle or maybe it's alway going to be speculation]
