Notes - From History of Frederick County, v.2, page 1314, 1315.
Charles Henry Hedges, who devotes his energies and time to rural occupations, was born on the old Hedges homestead farm in Frederick District, on the Emmitsburg pike, Frederick County, January 23, 1858. He is the son of Daniel and Catherine (Devilbiss) Hedges. ... He acquired his education in the public schools at Dublin, Frederick County. He gave up school at the age of nineteen, and worked for his mother on the place farmed by his brother David, until he attained his majority. After his marriage, which took place in 1888, he began farming on his own account in Walkersville District, remaining there for one year. Mr. Hedges then removed to his present farm, owned by Clay Fulton, of Walkersville, and here he has since lived. This is a period of twenty years, and speaks well for Mr. Hedges.
