According to Lincoln, in his well-researched genealogies in the
"History of Hingham," Rebecca, daughter of Edward and Margaret
Hobart, was admitted, with her brother Joshua, to the church at
Charlestown (where Edmund first settled). As Lincoln says no more
about her it can be presumed that he found no further record of her.

When I return home this weekend and have access to my full library I
will look into this farther, but from the references I have at hand
it appears that Lydia Hicks was Edward's first wife, that her only
child was John, and that the rest of Edward's children were by his
second wife Rebecca, surname unknown, who appears to have predeceased him.
