I am looking for Edith Emily DRYDEN, daughter of Issac and Elizabeth. She died young and I would like to find family members with more information. She was born in 1880 and died in 1916. She married William Rawlins LANKFORD, son of Joseph and Lizzie MADDOX. Her brother, Samuel, had a son named Hugh Latimer DRYDEN, a NASA expert. Any information on him would help. ALEXANDER name is for Perry and Mary. They lived at 231 Main Street, Salisbury, in 1907. Any help at all about any of these surnames would be exceptional. Thanks.
