Notes
General:
"He was the ancestor of the Kenricks or Kendricks of Barnsable County and Nova Scotia. Tradition holds that he came from the "West of England", but it is unproven. Some believe he came to the Cape from New Hampshire. By 1704 he was in Harwich, and early in 1705 he was prospecting for land suitable for a farm in the part now South Orleans, between the head of Arey's Pond (then Potonumocot Saltwater Pond) and the fresh Baker's Pond (then Poponessett). He chose 9 acres on the west side of the old line between Eastham and Harwich established in 1682. It adjoined the line and stretched up from John Yates' land to Baker's Pond. It was owned by the Indian landholder John Sipson, who lived at Potonumecot within the limits of the old town of Harwich. On 27 Jun it was conveyed to Mr. Kenwrick by Sipson "out of ye love" for "Mr Edward Kindwrick, weaver" and for "other valuable consierations", with the "liberty" of grazing and cutting timber and firewood on the land "within ye township of Harwich". It appears to have been his first land purchase. He built his house on a small parcel of adjoinging land that he bought from John Paine. Edward seems to have been good friends with the Indians for reasons now unknown, and on many occasions purchased upland from them. Amont the Indian grantors who sold to him were John Laurence, Jacob Jacob, Stephen Jacob, Amos Quason, Rebecca Quason, Lusty Tom, Amos Larrance, Samuel Quot, Joseph George, Thomas Boreman, and Matthia Quansit. Their deeds refer to Edward as a "dealer", meaning shopkeeper, or trader. From Peepen and Joshua Ralph, also Indians, he bought large tracts in Harwich between Muddy Cove River and Round Cove. He had meadow at the Great beach that he bought from Judah Hopkins, meadow in Gregory's Neck at matchapoxit, and meadow at Chequeset near Pleasant Bay. When he died he owned 20 acres in Truro that he had bought from Experience Turner. He was clerk of the proprietors of the Great beach meadow in 1729 and for some years after. The Great beach was included in the Quasons' deed to the purchasers in 1711. After 1725 he moved to a house he built on the west side of the public road now leading from Orleans to Harwich and Chatham, just southwest of what was the home of John Kenrick, Esq., at South Orleans. He built on a lot that belonged to "Mr. Tom", the "Indian minister", who had died and left the land to sons Lusty Tom, Abel Tom and John Tom. The sons sold the land to Edward. At the time the property was inside the old town of Harwich. It was a large house, 2 stories in front and 1 in back, and he continued in business there as a "dealer". He had coloured servants, like most businessmen of the time, to help in and out of his house. At his death he had 3 coloured men and 3 coloured women servants, valued at £98 in the inventory of his personal property. Some of them lived in cabins on his land. On the east side of the main road northeasterly, about 200 rods from Edward's new house, on the westerly slope of a triangular piece of land that Eastham had set apart for an Indian meeting house, and north of the way leading to the Saltwater Pond, was the Indian burial place which until about 1830 had grave mounds made invisible by the plow. Edward may occasionally have attended worship services at the Indian meeting house, and may have given them financial aid.

Deyo, 1890 jumbles generations, saying Edward came to Boston in 1633 with 3 brothers from York, England, and settled in what is now South Orleans about 1640. 5

Notes
General:
He was a very famous navigator, and the discoverer of the Columbia River on the northwest coast of America. Many books and articles can be found describing his exploits. He went to sea early in life. In spring 1760 he was working for Benjamin Bangs as a hand on a whaling schooner of Harwich skippered by Judah Hopkins. Scotto Clarke, Elisha Clarke, and David Quansett were "ends men", Peres Bangs was "ship keeper", and Samuel Sears, Jr., Nathaniel Cahoon, John Cahoon, Abijah Bangs, Amos Lawrence, Micah Ralph, and John Sequattom were hands. The ship was on a successful whaling voyage to Canada River (now St. Lawrence River). In 1762 he enlisted in Captain Jabez Snow's company for service against the French on the frontier, serving a few days over 8 months. On his return he again went to sea, rising quickly to command of merchant vessels out of Boston to distant ports. For some time before the Revolutionary War he commanded packets between Southern ports and Boston. During the Revolution he commanded armed vessels, annoying the British and preying on their commerce. He participated in the Boston Tea Party. In summer 1787 he was given command of a voyage of trade and discovery to the northwest coast of America planned by Messrs. Barrel, Brown, Bulfinch, Darby and Pintard, merchants of Boston. One vessel was COLUMBIA, 250 tons, and the other was WASHINGTON, a 90 ton sloop (a tender). COLUMBIA was armed, built in 1773 at Hobart's Landing on North River in what is now Scituate, and he commanded her personally on the outward voyage. WASHINGTON was commanded on the voyage out by Captain Robert Gray. They sailed from Boston 30 Sep 1787, arriving at Nootka Sound Sep 1789, having on the way discovered the river he named Columbia as his ship was the first to enter it. While at Nootka Sound, WASHINGTON was rigged into a brig, and Kendrick took charge of it, sending COLUMBIA to Canton under Robert Gray, and then on to Boston. He visited many places on the coast and traded with natives. In 1791, while anchored at Queen Charlotte's Island, his vessel was visited by natives trying to capture his ship. Kendrick led his men in a brave knife fight, and shortly thereafter they sailed for China. He is supposed to have bought large tracts of land on both sides of the Columbia River at the mouth, and determined that Vancouver's land was an island by sailing around it. Up to that time it was thought to be part of the mainland. In 1793 he was lying in a harbour at Owhyee (now Hawaii) and was killed by a "ball accidentally fired from a British vessel while saluting him". He lived about 2 hours after the incident. He probably never lived with his parents in Barrington, NS. He met his wife in Edgartown in Martha's Vineyard, and lived most of the time there until 1778, when he moved to Wareham, MA. He bought a large parcel of land and built an expensive gambrel roof house, finished internally according to "foreign order of archetectural designs". He visited the Cape in 1781 to see relatives and childhood friends. At the house of his cousin Jonathan Kendrick he found an unnamed infant that he asked be named after him. He was a very large man, with great strength and courage. 10Marriage Notes (Huldah Pease)

General:
"He was educated as a physician, and was a successful practitioner. He lived at his father's place with his mothe until she died, whereupon he became sole owner and occupant, and stayed there till he died. He was very active, attending to both his farm and his medical duties. He died intestate, leaving a personal estate valued at £189 11s 2d, plus considerable real estate which by deed of 16 Jul 1753 he gave to his "three beloved sons Samuel, Anson, and Jonathan" equally. At his death he had one coloured servant, Joseph (inherited from his mother) living on the farm, plus 3 horses, 45 sheep, and a number of neat cattle. His surgical instruments, which showed him to be skilled, were valued at £7 14s 8d." 16Marriage Notes (Tabitha Eldredge)
" Jonathan, the youngest son of Edward, was educated at Cambridge, and became an eminent physician. He married Tabitha Eldridge, of Chatham, and died at the age of thirty-six, leaving three sons: Samuel, Warren A. and Jonathan, whose mother subsequently married Theophilus Hopkins. Samuel, the eldest son of Doctor Jonathan, studied medicine with Doctor Breed and became eminent in the practice in Orleans. He had three sons and three daughters. Jonathan, the eldest of the sons of Doctor Samuel, married Betsey Rogers of Harwich, and of their twelve children eleven lived to an adult age, settling in various sections, with various occupations." 5
