  • Notes 
    • The birth record in Providence. 7 Aug 1865, names his parents as James and Penelope.

      In the 1900 FC, the family is in Philadelphia as follows: James Edwards 34?, Aug 1865 RI; Mary 27, Mar 1873 PA; James 3, Jan 1897 PA; Edna 5, Nov 1894 PA. It's difficult to read, but I think his occupation is "fitter in shipyard."

      In the 1910 FC, the family is in Somerville, Middlesex Co., MA: James L. Edwards 43 RI, Mary E. 37 PA, Edna M. 15 PA, James D. 13 PA, Viola A. 8 PA, George W. 5 PA, and Alvin J. Gindhart 21/7 PA brother-in-law. James and Mary have been married 17 years. James is a ship builder in iron work industry, as is his brother-in-law.

      In the 1915 NJ SC, the family is on South Atlantic Ave. in Haddonfield, Camden, NJ: James L. Edwards 48 RI, Aug 1866 (pars b Wales & Ireland); Mary E. 42 NJ, Mar 1873; James D. 18 PA, Jan 1897; Viola M. 13 PA, Feb 1902; George W. 11 PA, May 1904.
