Notes

Note: POP-POP EDMONDS WAS ONE OF THE NICEST GENTLEMEN YOU WOULD EVER WANT TO MEET. HE WAS A PIONEER B&O RAILROAD MAN, LIKE HIS FATHER. HE WORKED IN THE PAINTING SHOPS, THEN BECAME SUPERVISOR AND THEN AN INSPECTOR. HE RETIRED AFTER 50 YRS SERVICE. HE USED TO TELL US HOW HE WOULD "CRACK THE ICE OFF THE BARREL" AS A KID TO TAKE A BATH IN WESTERPORT,MD. HE INVENTED THE "SPEED RECORDER" FOR THE RAILROAD AND SOLD IT FOR $40,000. IT IS STILL IN USE TODAY.
