"The Winchester Star [Winchester, Kansas], 11 July 1947," p. 1: "Word was received Monday afternoon from Great Bend, Kas., that Ed R. Sheldon had passed away at his home there after several months illness. He was superintendent of schools the past two years and president of the Chamber of Commerce. He had previously been superintendent of schools at Burlington, Tampa and Americus. He was 48 years old. He is survived by his wife, two sons, his parents Mr. and Mrs L. P. Sheldon, of McLouth, who had been with him a good part of the time the past few weeks; a brother, Martin, of Steilacoom, Wash., who also had been to see him last week, and sister, Mrs. Cassie Young, Topeka."
Edwin is son of Leonard Prentiss Sheldon (1874-1960) and Maude Schroeder (1878-1916).
Ancestry.com offers: "Sheldon Name Meaning - English: habitational name from any of the various places so called. The main source is probably the one in Derbyshire, recorded in Domesday Book as Scelhadun, formed by the addition of the Old English distinguishing term scylf ‘shelf’ to the place name Haddon (from Old English h?ð ‘heath(er)’ + dun ‘hill’). There are also places called Sheldon in Devon (from Old English scylf ‘shelf’ + denu ‘valley’) and Birmingham (from Old English scylf + dun ‘hill’)."
