Hi Joy, Thanks so much. Do you have a source? I seem to remember seeing a census record, probably 1880 with what looked like "Edward" in the first name. It was difficult to read, and I thought it might be a misprint, anyway, as the family was sure that his name was Edwin. In fact, two descendants (my wife included) were named after him. Be really interesting if his name isn't Edwin after all! Thanks, Mark "Do your duty in all things. You cannot do more. You should never wish to do less." Robert E.

I have the complete line forward for WILLIAM BALES + ELIZBETH ADAMSON if anybody is interested. Gary Clifton

Gary, I am interested in seeing your descendency from Wm and Elizabeth. I have one from the book "Bales Family" by Zelpha Mae Eads, but I have found some errors in it on my direct line.
