Hi Judie,
I hope I don't frustrateyou, but I am interested in the Edgar family in Coles County, Illinois.My wife is descended from the Edgar family in that area.The first Edgar who came to this country from the British Isles was thought to be James S. Edgar, who came alone when he was about 19 years old.He later sent for his father, also a James Edgar, no middle name or initial known.James S. would have arrived here around 1857.
As far as we know, none of that family was in the Civil War. I wonder if there is a connection?We have a very complete record of the Edgar family in Coles County, and this is the first time I have heard of James L. Edgar, or Johnson Edgar.When James S. Edgar came to Coles County, we have no record of how or why he arrived at that particular place.Did he go there because he had relatives there?I wonder.
