The formidable task or compiling the history of the descendants of Uriah Edwards (circa 1714 - 1781) was undertaken to preserve the information for posterity.

It is regretted that some qualified person did not undertake this task many, many, many, many years ago.  Many things that should have been preserved can no longer be, due to loss, destruction and unavailability of records.  The purpose of this Web Page is to collect the family data that is left, before it too is lost.

This Edwards Family History has been prepared for those interested in learning something of their ancestors.

The following people have made extremely valuable contributions to the compilation of this record:

 • Floyd V. Howes - Genealogist Extraordinary
 • Florence Rowley Rhodes (deceased), Superior, Nebraska
 • James Eldon Edwards (deceased), Topeak, Kansas
