It was a wish that came true.
James Edgar was born Feb. 22, 1794, in Washington County, Pa, the son of James Edgar, Sr., a native of Ireland. The father later moved to Wellsburg, W.Va., where he operated a hotel. James ran a ferry across the Ohio River there.
The family eventually moved to Harrison County, where James met Charity Bartow. 
Charity was born July 24, 1798, in Washington County, N.Y., the daughter of Zenas and Elizabeth (Carpenter) Bartow. Zenas Bartow was a veteran of the Revolutionary War who brought his family to Conotton in Harrison County in 1809. ....
