History
Edgeworth was established in 1904 and took its name from the Edgeworth Seminary, a school for girls that had relocated there in 1836. The school was named in honor of Irish writer Maria Edgeworth. From early on, it became a bedroom community for managers and professionals escaping the industrial pollution of Pittsburgh.
