Looking for the descendants of Edward Roberts, Jr. and Roelstha Sweet. Edward born April 08, 1849 in Selby, Lennox, Ontario to Edward Roberts, Sr. and Prudence Haney. Roseltha born 1856 in Selby, Lennox Ontario to Mulford Jesse Sweet and Mary Ellen Armstrong. Edward and Rose married February 25, 1880 in Napanee, Ontario. They had the following children:
1)Edna Roberts b. June 1881 in Canada
2)Harry S. Roberts b. anuary 1883 in New York
3)Mulford J. Roberts b. January 1887 in Minnesota
4)Diibitt Roberts (male-name is probably wrong-census image hard to read) b. March 1892 in Minnesota
5)Marian E. Roberts b. July 1893 in Minnesota.

They lived in Fairfax Twp., Polk County, Minnesota in 1900 census and 1910 census. On the 1920 Censu Mulford J. Roberts lived on Williston, Williams, North Dakota with a wife, Pearl. A Mulford J. Roberts died March 21, 1960 in Ventura, California according to the Social Security Death index.

Roseltha Sweet Roberts’ father, Mulford Jesse Sweet was brother to my great-grandfather, Ephraim Ash Sweet. I would love to find descendants and share information.
