The gravestones of the Edison family are to be found in five different cemeteries in the neighborhood of Vienna. Probably the oldest of these is on the northwest corner of Lot 8, Concession I, Bayham [township] about a mile west of the Otter Creek, on the south side of County Road 42.
The father, John Edison, apparently made the original application for this lot, as his name appears on the original township map, but was crossed off, and the name of Moses, the son, was written underneath. Family tradition maintains that the father, "Tory John," and his wife, Sarah (Ogden) Edison lived here with the son Moses, and were buried here in the little plot on the rise of land not far from the road. A son, Adonijah, who died in August, 1825, was buried here. Over the years the group of stones which once stood here, have gradually disappeared until, by the early 1960's, not one remained standing.
