Beloved husband of the late Ruby Bender (nee Golbeck). Cherished dad of Barb (Bruce) Wendling, Pat (the late Paul) Bender, Mary (the late Doug) Hannusch, Lynda (Dave) Weber, and Anne (Bob) Cheeseman. Precious grandpa and papa of nine grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. Brother of Ruth (Fred) Seiling and brother-in-law of Ruth (the late Harold) Golbeck. Predeceased by his parents, Leah and Edward Bender; his brother, Earl Bender, and by his sister, Marie Sobisch.

    I also see a variety of birth dates for Edward???

    Feb 17 1888 - Allan
    Feb 17 1880 - Darren
    Apr 08 1888 - Mila and Mary Ann

    I was unable to find a birth record. His marriage info approximates his birth at 1887
    I don't see him listed in the 1901 census
    Mary Ann shows Edward as being previously married to Sophia, if this is true then Edward of the 1911 census has a birth date of Jan 1887
    Rechecking Edward and Leah's marriage record, he does indicate himself as being a widower.
    Allan has Edward being the son of Frederick, if that is correct then his birth date from 1911 census would be Apr 1883, and his name is Edwin not Edward.
