Edward Gascoign (Gaskill) (d.1690) emigrated from England to Boston in 1635. He was a Huguenot shipwright, who had a grant of land at Salem, Mass. in 1639. He married (possibly Sarah Parker) and they were the parents of six children. Son Samuel (1639-1720) married Provided Southwick in 1662. Daughter Sarah (b.1643) married Peter Joy. Their daughter Preserved (1639-1711) married John Lambert of Salem (1629- 1710) and they were parents of nine children. Samuel and Provided are the progenitors of numerous Gaskills in New Jersey. They were the parents of seven children. Family members were Quakers in New Jersey, Ohio and Indiana.
