Life History

Notes

• Edna first shows up in official documents when she is 7 years old at the 1880 census.  There has been some confusion because of a mistranscription by the Latter Day Saints genealogy library, which was picked up as is by ancestry.com.  The name is transcribed there as Edan E rather than Edna E.  Her full name is Edna Earl.
