    The transcription of the Minutes of the Corporation of Boston Volume I 1545-1607 records the following property transactions:

    NOTES & QUERIES:
    1) Who were his parents?
    2) When and where was he buried?
    3) The Index to Volume 1 of Lincoln Record Society's The Parish Registers of Boston 1557-1599 lists a John EDGOOSE on page 133 which covers burials for the period 27 September 1590 to 28 February 1590-91. No EDGOOSE appears on that page.
