Edward Ellsworth Anderson was the son of Nicholas Anderson and Lucinda Robison, although it isn't clear if he was the natural son of either of them. He was listed in their 1880 household, aged 15, a year after Nicholas and Lucinda married.

Edward married Lillie May Yeley Sept. 20, 1890, in Bartholomew Co., Indiana. Their children were Mabel, Ivory, Alfred, Dores, Lester, and John Anderson. He loved all his children very much, he loved his grandchildren more than the world itself. Edward was named in honor of Col. Elmer Ephraim Ellsworth, the first Union officer to die in the American Civil War.
