Are you still interested in Benjamin Edes Jr.? I am trying to clear up his death date. Dover-Foxcroft, Maine history has Benjamin Jr. died 1805, but then there is dicrepancy about George Valentine Edes' birth date. I have to find his headstone, but Louis Stevens a Dover-Foxcroft historian can't seem to settle on a birth date (either 1789 or 1797). It is a muddle. What became of Benjamin Jr? I have about 175 surnamed Edes, mostly descendants of Edward Edes and Susanna Welch, m. Jul 15, 1714 (not the Peter Edes line). Glad to share all.
