Posted on: Polk County, NC Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/NC/Polk/179 Surname: Edwards, Burgess, Tallant, Powell, Womack ------------------------- Any information about the John W Edwards from Polk County would be very helpful. Census Information from the 1920 Census has: John W Edwards, 79 Martha, 64 Mary, 22 Frank, 23 Waldon, 3 Myrtle, baby In a previous census report (1870) this same John W is listed as having the wife, Talula Annie Burgess. I believe she is my ggggrandmother. (Does anyone know where her grave might be?) Talula Annie and John also had some other children...Ramah and Albert. I also saw that Annie's parents Albert & oops...can't recall right off what her mother's name was--her parents probably lived next door. I have also found where John W. Edwards enlisted in the Civil War. If anyone has any info about this family, I would appreciate it. You may e-mail me directly [email protected] Thanks a bunch, Linda
