I have seen a suggestion that Edward Kemp was the son of Edmund Kemp and Denise Watson of Norfolk, England. Perhaps, but there was another Edward Kemp in Virginia in the late 17th century, so I am not jumping to any conclusions about Kemp’s origins.

Edward KEMP was the son of Edmund and Denise, b. London,1645. He had two brothers, Matthew, b. 1650, London, and Robert, b. 1652,London, but he also had a SISTER - Anne, b. 1660 in VA. She m. Phillip HUNLEY, Jr. in Gloucester Co., VA., son of Phillip, Sr. and Anne PETTUS.(Ther is a lot about the PETTUS family and plantation in VA near williamsburg, which has been excavated by archeologists, and I have a lot about it from the Internet and a book purchased).
