Elizabeth,

I don't see any connection with my Edwards' right off hand. In this century,
all of my family that I know of has been in Oklahoma, Missouri and Arkansas.
At this time I've really been concentrating on my husband's line, the
Boydstuns, and I don't have a lot of info on my family. Here is what I do
know:

Thomas Edwards (1845-1880) m. Mildred A. (mnu) (b. 1849)
Child: George Washington Edwards (b. 1876) m. Nancy E. (mnu)
Children: 1. Robert Edwards b. 1893
2. Roy W. Edwards b. 1898
3. Jesse J. Edwards b. 1901
4.Tamirey? Edwards b. 1903
5. Charlie Edwards 1910-1910
6. Riley Edwards, Sr. (Jack) b. 1919 m.
Catherine Irene Jeffries

I don't know where Thomas Edwards was born or lived, but he ended up in
Oklahoma. My grandmother, Irene, told me that Riley was part Indian. I
believe that Nancy E. was Indian, either Choctaw or Cherokee. She was quite
a little fireball from the stories. This family was not on the Indian rolls,
which makes it harder to trace.

If you see a connection, please let me know, and if I run across anything
that looks like a link, I will certainly be in contact.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Samantha
