He appeared in the census in 1910 in Anderson County, Tennessee. Edrie 8 son m s w TN TN TN He died on 9 Jan 1945.

He was buried about 11 Jan 1945 in Farmer Cemetery, Anderson County, Tennessee. Tombstone: Farmer, Ed 10-9-1901 1-9-1945 Son of Hugh & Dora Farmer Eddie for certain died in 1945, but I have been unable to find him in the 1920 and 1930 censuses. There was an Edwin Farmer in the 1920 census in Montgomery County, Tennessee and an Edwin O. Farmer in the 1930 census in Robertson County, Tennessee that might have been him. In both cases, Edwin was married to Nellie. There is not an entry in the 1945 Tennessee Death Index for Eddie. So I don't know what happened to him between 1910 and 1945. (RGB)
