Edward, son of William Mary Sunday, was born in 1856 and on account of the Civil war he was not able to attend school but being a man of more than ordinary natural intelligence he has not made a splendid citizen but has accumulated a comfortable competency.
He married in 1872 Nancy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Wilkerson.
They were the parents of: Jennie, born September 5, 1875; William E., Lulu, married John Asa Polson; Edward A., married Rebecca Bible.
