  • Notes 
    • Edward's parents moved to Castlewood, S. Dakota around 1900 and it was here, through the church they both attended that Edward met Lydia Ganger, whom he married November 11, 1904. When Edward's folks moved back to Nashville, he took over their farm for a year and then moved to a farm in Hallock, Minn., where Leo, their first child, was born. Sometime later, Edward decided to become a salesman for Watkins Products and the family moved to Steele, North Dakota. The other three children, Milton, Harriet and Maynard were born here. In 1918 the family moved to Leonard, N. Dakota, where the father was employed by North American Creamery. Several years later in 1920 the family moved to River Falls, Wisconsin. Here Edward worked in an overall factory. Here the family grew up and when they moved to Minneapolis, Maynard chose to remain in River Falls.
