  • I'm not clear on the image of Edgar's gravesite. Is this in Richmond? The reason I am asking because as a child in 1945 my Mom and I would walk through what I thought then a churchyard and visit a gravesite. She told me this was his gravesite. There was a house close by that I thought belonged to him. I went to a small catholic school there, St. Patrick's School. Am I off base here.
