I noticed that Edwin's parents are too young to have Edwin born 1815. Would you be willing to research and add birth dates of his parents? Also biography could use a little organizing to better tell Edwin's story. I could help with research and the biography. Let me know.

Best. Linda

Fish-3205 and Fish-3204 appear to represent the same person because: they are clearly the same man - and have same profile manager - both married to same woman also.

Source: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:N3FC-BBV on Fish-3204 has many follow-up sources including Primary sources - please MERGE and then use those sources to make a decent profile. Thank you!
