[Edey.FTW]

Moses Chamberlain Edey, Architect, etc., Ottawa, Ont. was born, in
September, 1845, in Pontiac County, Que. He is the son of Richard and
Mary Edey. His parental grand parents were born in Vermont, but being
dissatisfied with the changes that had taken place there, determined to
brave the difficulties and hardships of a pioneer life in Canada. In
1812, they settled in Aylmer, Queb., where the father of our subject was
born. His wife, whose maiden name was Wyman, is of a family distinguished
in the annals of both American and Canadian history, her forefoathers
having sailed from England for America in the "Mayflower". Mr. Edey's
parents are still living, and in 1892, celebrated their golden wedding,
under most auspicious circumstances. Mr. Edey received a good education
at the common schools. At the age of seventeen, he removed to Arnprior,
where he learned the carriagemaking trade, afterwards working three years
at the same business in Ottawa. He went to Toronto, spending a year under
Mr. Thomas, receiving instruction in the building trade. He then
proceeded to Moravia, N.Y., where he studied under Mr. Z. T. Stearns,
Architect, and was afterwards, for a time, connected with the Casey Tool
Co., of Auburn, N.Y. He then carried on building in Ottawa, but on
account of his health, retired, and has since devoted himself strictly to
his profession. For five years, Mr. Edey, attended the Ottawa School of
Art, and holds diplomas for practical geometry, free hand drawing, drawing
from models, building, construction and industrial design. He is also a
member of the Ontario Society of Architects, the A.O.U. W. and Select
Knights, Ottawa; was a member of the Garrison Battery, Ottawa, two years,
and served with that corps at Prescott. In religion, Mr. Edey is a
Methodist; in politics a Liberal-Conservative. He was married, May, 1872,
to Mary, daughter of Thomas Williams, Esq. of Russell County, Ont. His
family consists of two daughters.

Moses married Whillens, Mary. Mary (daughter of Whillens, Thomas and Anderson, Mary) was born on 11 Jul 1851 in OH. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
