As far as I have been able to tell, Henry L. Edwards had 5 sons and 2 daughters. Four of the sons lived at home in 1830, before Albert was born. In 1840 he still had four sons at home, except that one of them was younger. If Jasper were Henry's son, he would have moved out abt 1840, and the census information supports this. Also one of the newspaper articles I have been able to find, states that Robert H Edwards is at the home of Albert Edwards and he is sick with smallpox. Robert was the son of Jasper Edwards. He married Mary Spinks on Dec 6, 1865.
John O. Edwards married Elizabeth Jones 29 July 1852 in Clarke Co. Ga. I believe she is the same as "Lizzie Jones" who was buried in the Edwards cemetery in Oconee Co.
There is also a Susan Edwards who is the widow of A.J. Edwards. They lived in Oglethorpe Co in 1850, but by 1860 all of these Edwards' were living in Puryears District Clarke Co.
Albert is my GGGreat Grandfather through his second wife Eliza Tribble and their son Verney A Edwards. I have been trying for quite a while to put all of this family together, so I welcome any information whatsoever.
