About Amos Cogswell

AMOS COGSWELL (female?)

This surname has been confused (it's spelling aka Coggelshall) (on wikitree) with the Coggeshall name many times. The Cogeshalls moved from Heddington, Essex, England to the Newport Rhode Island area and settled there.

This Cogswell family came from Westbury, Essex, England and landed in Massachusetts and settled in the Essex area there. Look down the tree and you will see some of the different spellings of the name of his descendants. The Cogswell descendant that supposedly married an Eaton (Mayflower passenger) I think may be confused with the Coggeshall descendant that married an Easton.
