Joseph Alfred Edwards was born August 20,

1816 or 1817. Another reference, "History of East

Hampton" by Hedges, lists his birthdate as 1819.

According to his obituary he was born in 1816.

He died April 13, 1903 in

Florence, Fremont, Co. He was buried

April 15, 1903 in Highland Cemetery,

Florence, Fremont, Colorado.

The obituary was sent to us by Carol Fox from Florence, Colorado:

From the Daily Tribune, Florence, Colorado, Tuesday, April 14, 1903,

Vol. II, No. 38,page 3:

Died, last night at the home of his son E. E. Edwards, the dairyman,

Joseph A. Edwards, aged 86 years. Arrangements for the funeral have not

yet been completed.

 

Joseph Alfred Edwards married Caroline

Snook or Snooks on January 25, 1836 in Suffolk County,

Sag Harbor, NY. Caroline Snook(s) was born

ca. 1820 in England and she died December 3, 1850. She was buried

in Salem, Iowa.

Richard Squires, a descendant of Ellis Squires and Phebe Russell,

the grandparents of Deborah Penny (the mother of Joseph A. Edwards),

has sent us a copy of a photograph of the Joseph Edwards home in Iowa.

The photograph appears in an atlas. Part of the text in the atlas

states: "A fine class of people reside here, and the farms are

generally well-improved, while the citizens are for the most part in

good circumstances."

 

The children of Joseph and Caroline are listed in the IGI as follows:

Mary A. Edwards 1837

William Henry Edwards 1839

John Penny Edwards 1840

Samuel D. Edwards 1842

Ellen A. Edwards 1845

Elizabeth Edwards 1848

Wesley Thomas Edwards 1850

His second wife was Lydia Ann Frazier, married Oct 10, 1851.

Click here for a report on the descendants of Joseph Edwards and Lydia Frazier based on a file sent to us by Richard Squires and also information from Carol Fox.

His third wife was Mary Wright.

The three oldest sons of Joseph and Caroline

went off to war. Two of them, William Henry and his brother

Samuel D., died while in the service. Details are contained in this

letter from the Henry County Genealogical Society:

Dear Mr. Drachman:

I have found the following information for you, and I hope it is the 

information that will answer your questions.

[note from Byron: This is not part of the letter from Doris Sharp, but click here 
to see a photocopy from the 1856 Iowa census sent to us by Carol Fox from
Florence, Colorado. The young men William H., John, and Samuel all seemed to gain
13 years in age over a ten year period whereas the girls'(Ellen and Eliza) 
ages correspond correctly to the years.]

It appears that Caroline Edwards (Ist wife of Joseph A.) died (and I am 

guessing here) in late 1850 or early 1851(maybe in Child birth, because 

you will notice on the 1860 Census there is a Tho. W. Edwards, 11 yrs. old 

which would make him as having been born in 1850 or 1851, and is the son

of Joseph A & Caroline Edwards.


Joseph A. Edwards then married Lydia Frazier the 10 October 1851 and they 

had 3 children according to the 1860 Census.

Second. 

I was looking at the International Genealogical Index put out by

Salt Lake City, and found a Marriage record whereby Joseph A.

Edwards married a Caroline ? (no last name mentioned) on 25 January

1836 in Suffolk County, Sag Harbor, NY.

I have not been able to find a burial for Caroline Edwards, but 

since she died so early, there may not be a stone showing up in

any Cemetery for her in Henry County, Iowa. Since Jackson Township,

Henry County, Iowa, is very close to the Lee County Line, it's possible

she may have been buried in Lee County. Jackson Twp. does not have

many Cemeteries (what there is are all abandoned, and we do not have

any sort of record of names for those buried in any of those Cemeteries)

I searched another Cemeteries which we have a record of, but did not

find her in any of those.

 

I also did not find any Estate probated for Caroline Edwards in Henry

County, Iowa.

 

Third.

John P. Edwards, and Samuel Edwards were also in the Civil Star. Samuel

Edwards died of Pneumonia 26 Jan. 1862, Benton Barracks, St. Louis,

MO. I am not sure where he is buried. There is a Civil War Marker

for Samuel Edwards, Co. D - 14th Iowa Inf. in the Salem South Cemetery,

Salem Twp., Henry County, Iowa. Also John P. Edwards is buried

in Friends Cemetery, Salem Twp., Henry County, Iowa. He was born 11 May

l840, and died 14 March 1916 in Henry County, Iowa. Enclosed is a Copy of

his Obituary stating that he was the son of Joseph A. Edwards. and

Caroline Snook (and here is the mother's maiden name)

 

John P. Edwards married Martha Ellen Joy, 25 August 1864 in Henry

County, lowa. She died in 1928.

 

It appears to me that William Henry Edwards, John P. Edwards, and Samuel D.

Edwards were brothers and all enlisted in the Civil War in the same Infantry

Division and same Company. Company "D" 14th Infantry Division.

 

I am enclosing a Copy of the names of those 3 men that are shown in the

 

Book "Roster and Record of IOWA SOLDIERS in the WAR OF THE REBELLION, VOL.II

 

Hope this helps you out. It appears that these men were all sons of Joseph

A. Edwards (whose middle name may be Alfred), but I have no proof, because

I believe they moved out of Henry County, Iowa sometime between 1860 and 1870.

I did not find them (Joseph A. & Lydia) on the 1870 Census of Henry County,

Iowa.

 

I hope this information helps you out some. Let me know if you come to pretty

much the same conclusion as I did on this Family.

 

Yours very truly,
