Edward was said to be courteous and firm. When the King fled from Hampton Court, he left a letter thanking Edward for his civility. The King was recaptured some time later. Edward was part of the tribunal that tried the King. It was said that he was present at all sessions except one. He and the rest of the nineteen judges signed the death warrant.After Charles II gained the throne at Cromwell's death, the regicides were condemned to the block. Edward and his son in law Colonel William Goffe/Goode, fled back to America and managed to elude capture, living in the swamps near Old Hadley, Mass. Edward's brother Robert also fled England for America, going to Virginia and changing his name to Theophilus, 12. iii.

T HEOPLUS ROBERT11 WHALEY (RICHARD10, THOMAS9, RICHARD OF8 DORALSTON, THOMAS OF7 KIRKTON, RICHARD WALEY OF6 NOTTINGHAMSHIRE, HENRY5 WHALEY, JOHN4, JOHN3, EUSTACE2, WYAMARUS1) was born 1615 in Kirkston, Nottinghamshire, England, and died 1719 in S. Kingston, Rhode Island. He married ELIZABETH MILLS 07 Feb 1665 in Rappahannock, Virginia. She was born 1645 in Virginia, and died 1715 in S. Kingston, Rhode Island.Notes for T HEOPLUS ROBERT WHALEY: THEOPHILUS WHALEY"Austin's Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island" - (P. 221) - Theophilus Whaley (1616-1720) married 1670 E1izabeth M1ls (l6h~-l7l5). He is said to have been of wealthy parents and to have had a college education, in support of which he is quoted as saying that "till he was 18 years old, he knew not what it was to want a servant to attend him with a silver ewer & napkins whenever he wanted to wash his hands." He came to Va. before he had reached his majority and served there in a military capacity, but soon returned to England and was an officer in the Parliamentary Army. In 1649, his regiment took part in the execution of King Charles I. In 1660, Virginia, he came again from Eng. & married while in Va. where part of his children were born. In 1680, Kingston, he came thence about this time, his departure from Va. being conversant by a difference in religious views from his neighbors, he being a Baptist. His residence was near the head of Pettaquamscut Pond in what is now S. Kingston. He lived by fishing, weaving and teaching, being conversant with Hebrew, Greek & Latin, and his services as a penman were brought into requisition in executing the deeds and papers of his neighbors. The visits of distinguished men from Boston and other places, and his silence in regard to his previous history, perhaps account for the persistently held tradition that he was one of the Regicide Judges and had signed the death warrant of King Charles. Much of the mystery still clings to his history, notwithstanding the great service done by Rev. Dr. Stiles in his account of this interesting personage. The town records give but sparse items concerning him & he seemed to shrink from public office, tho he occasionally appears as witness to a will or deed. It has been conjectured that Theophilus Whaley may have been identical with Robert Whaley, a brother of Edward the Regicide and that he may have changed his name for some reason connected with the execution of King Charles. 6 Sept. 1687 - Taxed 35, lld 30 Jan. 1710 - He had 120 acres in E. Greenwich conveyed to him from the proprietors of the tract of land now comprising w. Greenwich. 20 Feb. 1711 - He & wife Elizabeth deeded son Samuel for love, etc., 120 acres in E. Greenwich. He moved in the latter part of his life to the house of his son-in-law, "Genealogical Dictionary of First Settlers of New England" - V. IV Theophilus Whale, Kingston, R. le, came from Virginia with wife Elizabeth about 1676, had Joan, Ann, Theodosia, Elizabeth, Nartha, ~dia, and Samuel; but it is thought that if not more, the eldest two were born in Virginia. Great uncertainty attaches to almost everything he said or did, as is found often in regard to those who emigrated from a distant country and lived to great age. Potter says he knew Hebrew, Greek, etc. and died about 1719/20, aged about l04. It would have been strange if more than one myth had not sprung out of his grave. My first exercise of caution would be to examine the means of reducing his years by 20 or near, for his only son, it is said, died about 1782, and it is quite improbable that when he was born the father was much beyond 70. Beside that his wife died 8 or 10 yrs. before her husband. Dr. Stiles in the exuberance of his conjecture that was requisite to sustain his credulity supposes he may have been one of the regicides. But we know the names of all who acted in that tragedy, as well as of those who were nominated and declined to act or withdrew as did several after participating some hours in the mockery of trial before its end, among all of whom is not that of Theophilus Whale. Some of those misguided men would have resorted to any other part of the world, sooner than Virginia. - Samuel Whale, only son of Theophilus, had two wives, first a Hopkins, then a Harrington, as Potter reports; and that his children were seven: Thomas, Samuel, Theophilus, James or Jeremy, John and two daughters, and that he died about 1782."
