Edith was born in Norwich, Connecticut, to merchant Charles Carow and Gertrude Elizabeth Tyler . Gertrudes father Daniel Tyler served as Union general in the American Civil War. Edith grew up next door to Theodore T.R. Roosevelt, Jr. in New York and was best friends with his younger sister Corinne . She was T.R.s first real playmate outside his immediate family. Edith recalled, I was but four years old, when my mother came to the nursery to say that the Roosevelt children were coming to spend the day. I remember hiding my old and broken toys and my nurse explaining that the shabbiest of all might give the visitors the most pleasure. Martha Stewart Bulloch became aware of the growing intimacy between Edith and her son and invited her to join him for kindergarten tuition. During her childhood, Edith was known as Spotless Edie.
