Biography
Thomas was born about 1706. He passed away in 1768.
"Thomas Edwards was one of the first judges appointed for Lancaster county, in 1729; and he remained a jurist for more than thirty years."
Thomas and his father John are both mentioned in the following document, but I believe the reference to jurist must have been his father because by 1738 he was in New Garden, Guilford County, NC [1]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Thomas by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Thomas:
Edawrds-8 and Edwards-5970 appear to represent the same person because: These two are duplicates and need to be merged. Please approve and merge. Typo from Edawrds-8.
Everywhere I look, Thomas Hanuel Edwards is said to have been a son of John Edwards and Mary Ingram; however, no one offers any proof that this is a fact. Have you verified this to be true? if so, would you please share it with me? Thanks for your kind assistance! Gene Wheeler.
