Bye for now, Leah Graham E-Mail #4: From: Bruce G Date: Thursday, October 09, 2003 4:15:40 PM To: John E Hoyt Subject: Re: Hoyt-Edwards Family History John, First - type in Errol Estate Country Club in your search engine. Itwill bring you to the Er rol Estate web site - photos, etc. It is an oldmansion in Apopka that is now a resort wit h a 27 hole golf course. Itdescribes it in the history. It was owned by John T. Pirie. M y AuntNancy says it was an incredibly beautiful mansion where some importantand exciting gal a event was held every weekend. Many servants - each ofthe servants had their own guest hous e and the houses were all named. Second - After printing that info, type in Plymouth Historical Trail inyour search engine (i n Apopka). Look down where it mentions the ErrolEstate. It mentions that William Edwards us ed to run that enormous placewith all it's cattle, etc. According to my Aunt Nancy, William Edwards and John T. Pirie (both fromScotland) were bes t friends and both came down from Illinois. Nancy sayshe must have acquired the bulk of hi s wealth in Illinois (where he wasmarried to Isobel, and where his first son James Stewart wa s born).William Pirie (John T. Pirie's great grandson) lives at the Errol Estatewith his wif e currently. I emailed him just two days ago to see if hehad any information on William Edwa rds. Interestingly enough - he does

He had to go out of town for two weeks so I'll have to w ait to see whathe has. But I have a hunch that there are photos of William Edwardshanging i n the Errol Estate on it's walls. His words were "when I returnI will get to you all tha t I have ASAP". I'm excited and I will keep youinformed. Two things: 1) According to the 1900 US Census - William Edwardsimmigrated from Scotland i n 1886. Isobel in 1892. According to the 1920US Census - William naturalized in 1890 (doesn 't show immigration year).According to the 1930 US Census - William immigrated in 1884, Isobe l in1894. So there is a two-year discrepancy for each. Naturalizationrecords do not go bac k that far unfortunately. So I am left to searchScottish records. We have their birth place s, we can try those places.Or we'll have to search passenger lists. 2) I still need a maili ngaddress for you. Keep working with Ann

I'll keep talking with Nancy. I just wish shehad a computer

Catch you soon.
