Edith was born in 1869. She was the daughter of Almond Peterson and Eliza Allen. She passed away before 1875.
Her death is inferred by the fact she does not appear with her siblings in the 1875 census when she would have been only 5 years old. Also her father names another daughter with his second wife 'Edith M', presumably in her memory.
