Parents were Zebedee Bassford and Delilah Carr Bassford. Born on 23 Sep 1854 in Virginia. Edward Carr died in Caspar, WY, on 14 May 1946 age 91 years 7 months 21 days. Buried in Highland Cemetery. GR12 B28. Occupation: Blacksmith.
He died at Natrona Memorial Hospital where he had spent the last five months of his life. His death record indicates that he had been living in Caspar, WY for 30 years. His address was given as 123 North Ash St. He married Mary Leah KNAPP, daughter of T.(?) D. KNAPP (? -? ) & Sarah E. HUSTON (?) (abt Apr 1831-9 Feb 1900), on 16 May 1881 in Woodbury, IA.

They had the following children:
12 i. Delia Elizabeth (1882-?)
13 ii. Alfred Z. (1884-<1946)
14 iii. Edward Marion (1887-1952)
15 iv. Mary Edna (Died Unmarried) (1889-1910)
16 v. Lottie Irene (1891-1975)
17 vi. Lulu Margaret (1893-?)
18 vii. Ethel Violet (1897-?)
19 viii. Myrtle Frances (1899-?)

One of his daughters married a Mr. C. W. Thomsen, and was living in Vallejo, CA at the time of Edward's death in 1946. This might have been Myrtle. If not, then it would have to be a second marriage for Lulu since she is the only other daughter not accounted for in Edward's obituary.
