Edward Guardene Bailey (1835-1900) was born at Poten, Quebec, Canada, the son of Butterfield and Hannah Dufur Bailey. His family immigrated across the border to North Troy, Vermont, ca. 1837, then migrated to Lorain County, Ohio in 1844, and to Ransom, Michigan, in 1855. Edward moved to Barry County, Michigan, where he married Sarah Margaret Davis (1840-1912) in 1855 at Assyria, Michigan. They had five children, 1858-1873. Edward and Sarah moved to an area near St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1856. In 1858, they moved to Redwing, Minnesota, and later that year to a farm near Hader, Minnesota. Edward enlisted in the Union army in 1861 and was given the rating of sergeant. He served in the 3rd Minnesota Regiment, Company E. Letters to his wife were written in Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, and Arkansas. After the war he returned to Minnesota. The family migrated to Potawattamie County, Iowa, in 1869.
