Biographical/Historical note
Eva-Lou Joffrion Edwards wrote an autobiography that covered almost eighty years of her life. She had it printed for private distribution, but nevertheless a book columnist was sufficiently impressed to review it.
She completed a great deal of painstaking research back to the time her ancestors arrived in the New World to fight against the British. She used many genealogy resources and carefully saved all of them.
