Dates of birth and death taken from gravestone.
On the basis that Edmund Sr moved his family to Iowa about 1851 or 1852,
it is believed that Mary (second wife) had given birth to three of their
four children in Indiana, then moving to Iowa prior to the birth of the
fourth child, a son, born 1 Sep 1853 (Infant died), and twenty-seven days
later, Mary also died, probably from childbirth causes. This would place
the family in Spring Creek Township, Black Hawk Co., Iowa, where Edmund Sr
would marry his third wife, Elizabeth Findley, in 1856. See that marriage
for more information./CGT/
Date of death might be 19 or 20 July 1927.
