Hello, Jeff,
I take it that your grandfather was the Charles Edwards born in 1877?From what I can tell, that Charles Edwards later lived in Benton, Franklin Co., IL.His 1942 WWII draft card is viewable online (at Ancestry.com), and on it his name was Charles Edwards living at Route 1, Box 141, Benton, Franklin Co., Illinois.He was 64, born 29 Oct 1877 in BARTON, MARYLAND.A next of kin, which was his wife, was Alice Edwards at the same address.At the time, he worked for the C. W. F. Coal Company in West Frankfort, Franklin Co., IL.
I didn't search a lot for him, but I can see that he's in Benton for the 1920 and 1930 censuses at least.Anyway, I hope this information helps.
