Birth Bedford Info came from NEHGS - Vital Records of Bedford, Massachusetts to the Year 1850, Published by the New England Historic Genealogical Society at the Charge of the Eddy Town-Record Fund, Boston, Mass., 1903 I found this couple in the 1850 census in Bedford, Middlesex, MA: R.W.Edwards (33 b.
