    • According to Edward's obituary Edward and Mary were the parents of 16 children, they gave different numbers on various census reports, in 1900 they reported 8 born and 8 living; in 1910 they reported 12 born and 8 living (obviously 4 had not been born in this 10 years). I was able to uncover 14 of them by researching church baptismal and burial records and census records.
      Edward and Joseph may be the same child although in no record is a middle name used. Joseph is baptised and Edward is buried and in census records.
