Christopher A O'Connell has an entry in Descendants of Matthew Stead for Edward Stead, son of Edward Stead and Mary, born in 1717, his marriage to Susanna Faivil, nine children, and his death in 1764. These children include William in 1757 whose mother in the IGI is given as Elisabeth so I assume he was the son of a different Edward, and have not included him. The death in 1764 occurs in the same year as his youngest daughter is born and I can find no other evidence of this death.
