EDWARD BRINSFORD (General)

I am afraid I have not pursued the parents of my Edward Brinsford as he was related to me only by marriage (albeit related twice over as first cousins married each other.

All I know about Edwards descendants is below (ignore the numbers, they are generated by my family tree software) how do you fit in?

Thanks
