From Taylor Kennedy:
The Bytown Gazette, Thursday March 12, 1840

Obit:  "In Richmond, on Saturday last, at the advanced age of upwards of 80 
years, George Edge, a Pensioner from the 99th Regiment. The deceased had 
been upwards of 59 years in the service of his country, was buried with 
military honours, and his remains were accompanied to the grave, by many of 
his veteran companions in arms, who thus took the last opportunity of 
testifying their respect for his character as a soldier and a man."

Thanks to Robert Sample for the following:

Hi Folks:  I saw Taylor's "George Edge" interests and info in your site Al 
so I thought that I would respond to you both.  My Grand Aunt Emily E. Brown 
b. July 4 1861(census d.o.b.) married Robert Edge b. Apr 3, 1845 
(census d.o.b.) and had their first child 1877.  Grand Aunt Emily was born 
a bit better than a mile North of the Village of Richmond, Ont.  and I 
believe she met and married Robert in the Richmond area.  Included is some of
what I have on that family.

Hello Al & Robert
 
Let's add some more. Buried at St. Isadores, March Township, George Edge 
died January 9, 1868 at the age of 84 years, and his wife Ellen Ryan, 
died October 24 18?? at the age of 58 years.  Erected by their son Phillip. 
Also buried there is Phillip died July 10, 1889 at the age of 75 years. 
Can this be the son of George Edge, being born circa 1784?

Hello George Edge reseachers,

My name is Sue Swiggum of TheShipList website.  I am in the process of 
transcribing the St. Lawrence Steamboat records 1819-1836.  They have never 
been published before.
http://theshipslist.com/ships/passengerlists/1819_20index.htm

Whenever I come across an interesting name, I google it.  I found George 
Edge and as he interested me,  I happened to find you.

Lady Sherbrooke - 22nd trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 19th October 1824
http://theshipslist.com/ships/passengerlists/1824/lsoct19.htm

22-27 George Edge & wife & four children under 12 years x    x 1/-/-  1/-/-

I don't know where this George fits in.  George of 1784 would only be about 
forty, so I suppose could have four children under 12 years . . . hope you 
enjoy . . .

. . btw.  below the line is a message I'd sent to the Bytown Museum 
December 2005, and as they haven't bothered to respond, you are more than 
welcome to use the information for your website  ;-}

Sue
