He attended the schools of New Britain and spent three years at the high school there. At the age of eighteen he, too, entered the manufacturing world. In 1856 he began the manufacture of the first metal curtain fixtures (of which he was also the patentee), and to 1861 removed to New Haven the firm becoming E. M. Judd & Co. Upon his location In New Haven, he added a general line of upholstery hardware. Later the firm was consolidated with the Turnet, Turner & Clark Mfg. Co. and the Seymour & Clark Mfg Co of Torrington and Edward M Judd became the general manager of the Torrington plants. The firm was known as the Turner, Seymour & Judd Co. In 1870s he sold out his interest in the company and assisted in the formation of the Judd Manufacturing Co at New Haven. The new company engaged in the manufacture of general hardware as well as upholstery hardware. Under his management these various companies prospered beyond all expectations and in 1874, Mr Judd went to Brooklyn and while still retaining his interest in the Judd Manufacturing Co started the firm of H L Judd & Co. After three years, he located in Wallingford where the Judd interests have since been centered. For thirty years Mr Judd was actively engaged in the large manufacturing interests of the family and in 1887 he retired to pass the latter half of his life In the rest and enjoyment his early labors would warrant. He was the inventor of a large number of curtain fixtures and his last venture was a stamp cancelling machine, which he considered his best work. This machine which completely destroys the stamp has been patented in this country and elsewhere. During his busy life Mr Judd did not find time to attend to civic duties in politics he was a staunch Republican and cast his first vote tor Abraham Lincoln. While he was never an office seeker, he never sought to evade the responsibilities of citizenship. He had served on the board of burgesses and on the school committee, and in 1897, was elected judge of the borough court which office he held at the time of his death. In every way that he could he had worked for the welfare of his town and state and gave his aid, financial, and moral to the support of any enterprise that would in any benefit the community. He was the one of the original incorporators of the First National Bank. In his religious faith, he was a Congregationalist and a member of the First Church in which he had served as superintendent of the Sunday school, and as chairman of the societies committee. Of generous disposition, he gave largely to charity but carried on the custom of his family in that he carried on his good deeds quietly. On March 27 I860 occurred the marriage of Edward Morton Judd and Jane A Peck, daughter of Joel and Charlotte (Scoville) Peck and to this union came children as follows: William Theodore born March 1, 1895, died February 24, 1867; Jennie Susan born March 8, 1872, married on October 1, 1805; Charles G Phelps of Wallingford, secretary to the late Orville H. Platt, senator from Connecticut, and clerk to the committee on Cuban affairs; Edward Peck born August 3, 1877.
