Edward Frisbie (ca.1621?-d.1690) emigrated from England to Branford, Connecticut. The story of Edward's origin is discussed fully in Volume I, as is the family's probable origin in the village of Frisby-on-the-Wreake in Leicestershire, England. He had a grandson Joseph Frisbie (1688-1758) who probably built Hearthstone, the family home still standing on the Boston Post Road in Branford, in about 1727. Descendants and relatives in New England, New York, Montana, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Kansas, Oklahoma, California and elsewhere. Fourteen generations of descendants are given.

Edward Frisbye, one of the earliest settlers in Branford, (originally Totoket) in the colony of New Haven (now part of present day Connecticut), came from England. The names of his parents, his date and place of birth in England and the date of his arrival in America are unknown. He is said to have married in 1644 (name of wife is uncertain) and possibly two other times. He "is on record as having entered his name for land December 15, 1645"--Page 19. An active Congregationalist, he was also involved in civic affairs. The will of Edward Frisbye was dated 20 October 1689. His estate was inventoried 26 May 1890. Descendants lived in Connecticut, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maine, New Jersey, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Colorado, Texas, California and elsewhere.
