He moved to Allen County in 1879. He migrated to Kansas from Champaign County, Illinois to which State he had moved some time after the Civil War. He was born in Jackson County, Michigan. He was reared in Licking county, Ohio. He was the son of Sandford Lacey who went into Michigan from New York and died in 1855. He married Louisa Parmelee and our subject is their first child. Edward grew up in the country and was educated in the District School. He enlisted August 12, 1862 in Company A, 17th Ohio Infantry, Col J. M. Connell commanding. His regiment was mustered in at Zanesville and was ordered into Kentucky. Its second important engagement was the one at Perryville, Kentucky, in October, 1862. Edward was in the battle of Shiloh and in the Murfreesboro fight, where he received a wound through the right thigh in the second day's engagement. He lay in the field hospital three months and was then sent to hospital No. 7, at Nashville. Upon his recovery he was transferred to the Veteran Reserve Corps by orders of the War Dept. His command was the 15th regiment, Company F, and he was Clerk in the Provost Marshal's office for nearly one year. He was then transferred to Washington D.C., and soon after, was ordered to Chicago where he acted as drill-master until his muster out of the service September 25, 1864. He re-engaged in farming in Iroquois County, Illinois, to which point his mother's family had removed during his absence. He married Mary E. Culbertson of Iola. She was the fifth of eight children. Edward became a Republican long before he could vote. His first vote was cast while in the army.
