Filkins, Edward Vincent. — The late Edward Vincent Filkins was born in East
Berne, on the Filkins homestead, in 1821 of Scotch ancestry.

'''His father, Richard Filkins, was a native of Vermont and came to Berne with his parents about 1792, and later settled in the eastern part of the town on a farm of 200 acres. He also owned and operated a saw mill, and was a soldier in the war of 1812, filling the office of sergeant. He was twice married, and by his first wife six children were born. His second wife was Catharine Angle; to this union were born fourteen children, eight sons growing to maturity.'''

Edward V. was reared on his fathers farm
and attended the Rensselaerville and Knoxville Academies, teaching .school to procure means to pay his way. He read law in Delhi and settled in Berne in 1854,
where he spent his life practicing his profession with success and distinction. Previous to his entering actively into the law practice, he filled the office of school com-
missioner. His law practice was extensive, often being retained on cases which carried him before the higher courts in Albany. His wife was Emma E. daughter of
Rev. Thomas L. Shafer and they had three children : Carrie E., Thomas Richard and May S. He died February 13, 1887, and his wife September 23, 1894. The surviving children, Carrie and Thomas, still reside on their father's homestead in the
village of Berne, and they own a farm of 400 acres in Iowa. Miss Filkins is a graduate of Temple Grove Seminary of Saratoga, and for some years afterward devoted
her attention to teaching.
