six wives, and was the daughter of George Mitton Haslam and Elizabeth Hill Maughan. She grew up in Wellsville and Tremonton Utah.
Her mother taught her and her sister Dorothy to sing, which they did at events, in choirs, etc. Many of her growing years were without a mother, however, as Elizabeth died in 1919 during the great "Spanish Flu" pandemic of 1918/19, just before Edna's 11th birthday.
Her first job outside of her home (which were few and far between in Wellsville) was at the Golden Rule Mercantile grocery and dry goods store in Wellsville, when she was 15. She quit high school at South Cache High in Hyrum, UT after she obtained the job.
The Haslam's moved from Wellsville to Baker (City) Oregon in 1925, where Edna first met Glen.
From June until November of 1926 she was a cafeteria worker at the American Can Company in San Francisco, staying with her oldest sibling Irma and her husband.
She and Stephen Glen (known as Glen) May dated in Baker and married on May 22, 1928 in Logan, Cache County, Utah, in the Mormon temple.
Edna was the mother of five girls and two boys, three still living. In addition to that full time job, she also kept books and clerked at her husband's bicycle, lawnmower, locksmith and other misc. business, Glen May and Sons in Baker, Oregon.*
* I have written a partial biography on Edna, from before her birth up until the time of her marriage to Glen. Find A Grave members who would like a digital copy can request one via my email, available to signed in members on this site.
