Edward Bangs was born in England, probably in 1591. In his will, written in 1677, he says he is aged 86 years. He is probably the same Edward Bangs who was baptized in 1591 at Penfield, County Essex, England, the son of John and Jane (Chavis) Bangs.
Edward Bangs arrived in Plymouth in 1623 on the Anne.
Edward Bangs married 1st Lydia Hicks sometime after 1627 daughter of Robert Hicks and Margaret ,Edward and Lydiahad one child, John Bangs who married Hannah Smalley and a one son, John.
Edward’s father-in-law Robert Hicks, had arrived in Plymouth in 1621 on the Fortune. The rest of the Hicks family – Robert’s wife Margaret, and their three children, Samuel, Phoebe and Lydia, arrived on the Anne (as did Edward Bangs).
Lydia (hicks) Bangs died in the mid-1630s. Edward remarried, to Rebecca [last name uncertain]. Edward and Rebecca had 9 children.
Edward Bangs served on several town committees, and held a responsible position within the community.
Edward Bangs and his family moved to Cape Cod in the 1640s when the town of Nauset (later renamed Eastham) was being established. In Nauset, Edward was licensed to sell alcohol.
Before his death, Edward Bangs wrote a will in 1677, he says he is aged 86 years; he died in 1677/78.

On this same ship was Edward Bangs, said to be her husband.<ref>D.O.S.Lowell, A Munsey-Hopkins Genealogy, being the ancestry of Andrew Chauncey Munsey and Mary Jane Merritt Hopkins, Boston, MA: 1920, pp 57-59: 'He married after 1627 Lydia Hicks, daughter of Robert and Margaret Hicks, by whom he had a son, John Bangs. Lydia died before 1637 and Edward married Rebecca
, who became the mother of nine children."</ref>
But::That she was Edward's first wife at all is circumspect. Her existenceas his first wife is based solely on the fact that in 1623, Edward Bangs was allotted four acres-- one acre for each person in his household. Many have interpreted this to mean he had a wife and two children. In addition, if they were a wife and children, they were not on the same ship as he was. By 1627, he is alone in the house, implying that his first wife (if he had one) as well as both children, were dead by that time. Robert Charles Anderson (GMB) comments that the 3 additional people could have been servants.
But (again!):: The will of Robert Hicks (Lydia's father) clearly identifies a grandson John Bangs;<ref>"Plymouth Colony Wills and Inventories," in Mayflower Descendant, 8:143-144: "Robert Hicks Will... unto John Banges my grand child"</ref> as does the will of Robert's widow Margaret.<ref>PCPR 2:2:32, abstracted in MD 16:157-58</ref> This supports that Lydia was not only first wife of Edward Bangs, but mother of his son John.
