Florence was the daughter of William E. Eddins and Mary Griggs Eddins. Her life was cut short due to peritonitis following the rupture of her appendix. Florence was 17 years, 8 months and 29 days old on the day she passed away.

Florence E. Eddins is my 2nd cousin twice removed. Our common ancestor is William “Old Frozen Bill” Sellers and Gilly Eddins.
