Trap to Avoid

Some pseudo-genealogies make a leap thinking Susanna's maiden name was "Turtle."
No respected secondary source corroborates this.
Yes, there's a marriage record on "22 May 1585" at "Saint Helen Theddlethorpe, Lincolnshire. England" for "Edwarde Hutcheson" and "Susan Tutle" (FamilySearch).
Yes, the parish mentioned is proximal to Alford, Lincolnshire.
Yes, the date fits related to the firstborn child.
However, the digital-data record (no image) show's "Susan", not Susanna.
There's no way to prove it does or does not represents the Susanna and Edward Hutchinson's marriage.
Many Hutchinsons lived in Lincolnshire.
The name "Edward" was then and remains a supremely common male name in England.
