Edwin Frank Champlin, son of Edwin F. and Fidelia Brown Champlin, was born December 6, 1870, in Mystic, Conn., and died in his home in Plainfield, N. J., April 6, 1946.

On December 6, 1870, Edwin Frank Champlin was born at Mystic, Conn. His father, for whom he was named, was a shipbuilder associated with the Greenmans in Mystic. His mother, Fidelia Brown Champlin, of Brookfield, N. Y., had served for some years as preceptress at De Ruyter Institute and had taught music there.

Mr. Champlin died soon after Edwin Frank was born and the mother took her family to Leonardsville, N. Y., where Edwin spent his boyhood.

After finishing high school training, Mr. Champlin entered New York University Medical School, and after studying there for a time, he attended and was graduated from Albany Pharmaceutical. Thus prepared, he entered into business as a druggist at Leonardsville and a little later, at Little Falls, N. Y. In 1907 he and his family moved to Plainfield where he went into business on the corner of Craig Place. Since that time he has worked in Plainfield as manager of a United Cigar Store, in the Professional Drug Store, and as a prescriptionist in Tobin's Drug Store.

As a youth Mr. Champlin had joined the Seventh Day Baptist Church of Leonardsville. When he came to Plainfield he united with the Plainfield Church. On September 26, 1942, he was ordained to the diaconate. He faithfully carried on the duties of his office until his death.
