This sent by his gr gr granddaughter Gale:
My gr gr grandfather (Edgar Franklin Crawford) died in Springfield as a result of a horrific train accident in the freight yards. Two engines were racing (not a good idea anyway) and Edgar and several others were killed when the engine jumped the track. The articles of the accident, subsequent investigations and obits are written as only they were back then, with every detail spelled out. Dumb dumb Edgar was riding on the cow catcher....need I say more? He left a wife and 7 kids. I have a wonderful picture of him. His wife Celia Emmerton Crawford then married Michael Cornelius Costello (who's descendents still live in Springfield).
