Brief Description of the Family

Edgar was born on 24 Mar 1875 and baptised a month later on 23 Apr 1875 at Charles, Plymouth. At the time of the 1891 census he was a Postal Clerk. By the time of the 1901 census he was a Sorting Clerk and Telegraphist.

He married Alice James in Headington in the 2nd quarter of 1906. It seems that although there are several Alice James off about the right age to be his wife that none of them were born in Headington, but a few were born in Plymouth. In 1914 his occupation was a sorting clerk. By 1926 he was shown as a Civil Servant.
