---∼Andrew Clarence Edgar who was born on January 5, 1899 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Clarence, as he was known, was the seventh of eleven children born to Mary Ann Allsworth and Walter Japp Edgar. He attended public school and worked at Star Laundry prior to the war. In 1916, Clarence volunteered to join the Army and was inducted into service on October 2. He was assigned to Company L, 15th Infantry and sent to Fort Logan in Colorado for training. After two months, Clarence was sent overseas to Tientsin, China. Clarence's mother completed his questionnaire but did not record any other information. According to a Salt Lake Herald-Republican article from November 25, 1917, Clarence served in the Philippine Islands for a year with Company G of the 31st Infantry before transferring to the 15th Infantry. In March of 1920, Clarence was home on furlough after three and a half years overseas and would leave for a Pacific Coast post shortly. In November of 1920, Clarence finally returned to Salt Lake City permanently after being stationed at Camp Dodge and Camp Lewis. Sadly, Clarence died on September 23, 1929 at 33 years old. His death certificate lists his cause of death as arthritis deformans and his occupation as a smelter man at the Magna Smelter. While the death certificate and newspaper obituaries list Clarence as single, two other newspaper articles claim differently. They report that the home of a Mrs. Clarence Edgar was looted while she attended the funeral of her husband. The robbers stole $150 hidden in a bedroom dresser. Clarence is buried in the Salt Lake City Cemetery.
