Birth Notes (Wife)
Edna Earle Patterson was named for the female character in book, "St. Elmo" written by
Augusta J. Evans.(Edna Earle was a girl, age 12, that witnessed a duel between Clinton and Mr. Dent. Mr. Dent was killed and Edna thought it was murder, and wanted Clinton punished. She later fell in love with him" - Harold Pepper, bro-in-law, stated he was going to call her "Bill" and Bill was what she was called. At least by family. St. Elmo was Mom's favorite book, she had the feeling it would be a "Classic" and so it was. "Bill" would have
been loved by everyone, regardless of the name.
General Notes (Wife)
Edna had two bad falls --fell off front steps in 2002 and injured her hip. She fell again
in April 2003 and injured her back - Checking reason for losing balance.
