Edwin Duane Harrington (1873-1945)
- Middle name "Duane" comes from his uncle Duane Howard Clement (1846-1908)
- The Bancroft Public Library's cemetery resources lists Edwin's cause of death as angina.
- Some Ancestry census records mention an "Adeson" Harrington born the same year as Edwin. I believe this is a misspelling or mis-transcription since those records don't also mention Edwin.
Edwin can be seen standing on the left in this family photo from around 1885:
