Most "early" information is a result of Family Trees reportedly from family papers and bibles relating to Edward Heirs claims. (where thousands of people tried to prove they were descendants) (p.90. 101, 109, 111, 161) (Affidavits, but no Bible References given) [citation needed] [2] [citation needed] [3]
There is a great deal of conflicting information – Several Source-to-Source discrepancies; co-mingling, Lack of records; conflicting family stories; number of same names, No Middle Names Verified, etc.; (Truth - No One Really Knows for Sure)
- Ancestors and Descendants are questionable because of the "Edwards Estate Scams"
- Sources are suspect -- There does not appear to be any exact civil or parish records found which positively establish his parents
- Denbigh Wales does have some records supporting birth dates for several individuals - but No Parent information found to connect parents to children; No Bible Sources located; No Will Located.

I've added this profile Category: Edwards Name Study. I couldn't find a category for the "Edwards Heirs Hoax", which would also be appropriate. See more info at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Edwards_Research
I was looking because I'm preparing to detach him as father of Thomas Edwards (Edwards-1871). If you have reliable sources that show the relationship, please share!
edit - added link to Thomas's profile. See also this G2G post.
