EDWARD J. SAYLOR/SAILOR My ancestor, Edward J. Saylor, is listed as a member of the Philip Moore household in the 1860 census. The census is from Fairfield Township, Washington County, and the Barlow Post Office is listed at the top of the census form. I am searching for any information about Edward Saylor (alternate spelling is Sailor) because I’ve hit a brick wall. His parents were born in PA according to the 1870 census (in Illinois) on which Edward appears.	Larry
