Research New England Families, Vol. I, Genealogies and Memorials, Page 240 Edward Bangs came to Plymouth, Massachusetts, in the ship "Anne" in June 1623. That year he acquired a garden plot of four acres on the Eel River. He was one of the surveyors who was appointed to assist William Bradford, Edward Winslow, John Howland and others in laying out lots in Plymouth. In 1633 he was made a freeman and taxed twelve shillings. He was active in civic affairs, and held many public offices. From 1634-1636 he was assessor, and in October 1636, he was one of the Great Inquest, or Grand Jury sworn "to enquire of all abuses within the body of the Government." In 1637 he was on a committee to divide meadow grounds, in 1638 on the Great Inquest, and in 1639 served as an arbitrator between Samuel Gorton and Thomas Clark.
