Rachel J. Calvert arrived in Brown Co. IN from Belmont Co. OH with her family in 1851, age
11. She married Green L. Edwards in Brown Co. on December 9, 1858. Green and Rachel are
found in Washington Twp, Nashville & Mt. Liberty PO, Brown Co., with infant son,
William K. on the 1860 census. Ages of the 3 are 27, 20, 8/12. Green is a farmer and was
born IN, father KY, mother VA. Rachel was born OH, father PA, mother PA. I don't
know where this family was in 1870, but they were in Marion Co. in 1880 and 1900.
There were 2 Edwards families in Jackson Co. IN on the 1840 census, Joel and Drury. Both
had boys in the age 5-10 column. Green would have been 7.
On the 1850 census Drury was in Washington Twp., Brown Co., and had sons ages 21, 14, 12,
4, and 2 - none age 17. Joel was in Owen Twp, Jackson Co., and had sons ages 16, 13, and
4. The name of the 16 year old was John L.
Was Green related to these families? Any information on Green and Rachel would be greatly
appreciated.
