Hi Katherine!

I agree with Richard, the family history I put together 15 years ago was based on faulty information from Glenn Woods. However, since that time, I have worked to fill in these gaps and I believe I have found some answers, but I'm not positive.

I have found a Robert Edwards, born in 1702/1703, whose father died when he was 2 years old, and he was raised by another family. It's possible, this family moved to Scotland at some point and James Edwards was born in 1727/1730.

Richard, my cousin Wayne has sent me many of Helen's articles and I initially contacted her about 10 years ago, which is when she began digging into this situation.

With the new information I have obtained from others, I believe I have filled in all of the gaps in the history.
