He ran the first water service for Morgantown. He married Sarah Jackson in 1865 and started his water hauling business shortly after. He hauled from the Monongahela River and Deckers Creek for a per-barrel price, until 1889 when the city authorized another company to install a water works system.","He purchased a home in 1877, and eventually amassed 12 acres, on what was lately 477 White Avenue.

He married Lucetta Dixon and had 6 children: John; James A.G. Jr.; Bessie; Ernest; Dixon; and Gwendolyn.","Between 1896 and 1927, James A.G. Edwards expanded the business, hauling garbage thru Morgantown and Westover. He employed a lot of the teamsters in the area. In 1926, the City of Morgantown took over his business. That year, he opened Edwards Quick Lunch on Pleasant Street, and also Way-Journ Lunch on 2031 University Ave. with Edward Brooks in 1931.
