Edward Binder born c1631 great baddow

[nannyj]

My 8x great grandfather, Samuel binder was born to Edward binder 1670 in great baddow. The only Edward binder that I could find was born 1631 great baddow to John and Mary binder.
I thought no more of it until I found a burial of an infant of John binder early 1632. Edward was the first child of John that I could find in great baddow. I’m not sure whether there were earlier children - I can’t find a marriage for John and Mary - or whether it’s edward who died and maybe I have the wrong Edward???
Added: I found no John binder baptised in great baddow but did find one baptised in 1609 in broomfield to Laurence binder senior. Laurence isn’t a name that appears for any of the descendants though.
