 ==Evidence from High Court of Admiralty==
-The records of the High Court of Admiralty contain two depositions by shipwright named Edward Bigland, ''alt.'' Edwardus Bigland,once on May 14th 1650 and the second time on April 11th 1656.
+The records of the High Court of Admiralty contain two depositions by shipwright named Edward Bigland (''alt.'' Edwardus Bigland), once on May 14th 1650 and the second time on April 11th 1656.
 The signatures on the two depositions are not identical - the first is his first name Edward, (1650). The second is Edwd Bigland (1656). However, it seems likely that the depositions were made by the same man, the subject of this biography.
