Does anyone have information about Edward Lyman, seed dealer, founder of Edward M. Lyman & Son or his descendants? Edward was born in South Hadley 1825. He worked for the Shaker settlement for 17 years. He then came to Springfield in 1854 and started his seed business. He died August 1, 1909. He had a son, Albert E. Lyman and 5 grandchildren, including Marjorie B. Lyman, Mildred E. Lyman and Albert E. Lyman, Jr. I have extensive information on Edward Lyman's wife, Eliza Bayliss. Ken Bayliss [email protected]
