EDGAR DOWEN MADDOX:  The brother beloved was from among the family 
that has given no less than ten preachers to the Baptist Denomination.  
He was the son of Elder D. J. K. Maddox and Sallie Tichenor Maddox,and 
was born in Ohio County, Kentucky, near Rockport on September 13, 
1865.  In early life he professed faith in Christ and was baptized by 
his father into the fellowship of West Providence Church in his native 
County.  By this Church he was licensed to preach in October, 1889.  
After attending school at Bethel College he was ordained by his home 
church on December 28, 1895.  Elders J. S. Coleman, A. G. Davis, 
D. J. K. Maddox, A. B. Smith, L. W. Tichenor, J. T. Casebier, H. P. 
Brown, T. M. Morton, and G. W. Gordon formed the unusually large 
presbytery.
	Thus began a ministry which was to last for thirty years.  In 
that time he preached to churches in Hopkins, Christian, Henderson, 
Ohio, and Muhlenberg Counties.  He also preached to churches in 
Tennessee and Missouri.  His pastorates in this Association were: 
Render, 1898-1899; Brushy Fork, 1899; Small House, 1900-1901; Station, 
1901-1904; Sacramento, 1914-1916; Friendship, 1923-1925.  
     During the last three years of his life his health would not 
permit his active participation in the ministry.  He departed this 
life on January 30, 1929.  His remains were interred in the East Lawn 
cemetery in Hopkins County.
	Brother Maddox first married Miss Frances Barnard.  One child, a 
daughter, was born to this union.  His first wife died in 1901 and in 
1903 he was united in marriage to Miss Donna Brown.  To this union 
four children were born.  These, with his second wife, survived him.
	His ministry was very extensive and useful and a great amount of 
good was accomplished.  He was a brother of Elder Albert Maddox.
