A little about my background.

Originally from WALES, my branch of the EDWARDS Family came to the United States during the 1850s from the area presently known as Gwynedd and formerly as Merionedd. Listen to the Welsh National Anthem.

I was born and raised in Morris County , which is in northwest New Jersey, where I attended West Morris H.S. I lived in a rather rural area, which afforded time for hiking and camping. My favorite season was the fall. It was an extremely pretty time of the year.

After I completed high school I continued my education at Rutgers University. I received a Bachelors in Business Administration.

The early years of my career were primarily spent in the construction business. I performed such functions as planning/estimating/sales for earth-moving and pipeline contractors. I also built a few single-family homes.

I moved to Florida in the early 1980's, primarily to escape the cold and icy winters. I lived in Brevard County, also known as the Space Coast. I have since retired to the mountains of northeastern Tennessee.
