Who was Edmund Reggie?

Edmund Michael Reggie, Sr., was an American Democratic politician and city judge from Louisiana.

Reggie was born in the rice-growing city of Crowley, the seat of government of Acadia Parish in southwestern Louisiana, but resided in his later years in Lafayette. He claimed to have been the youngest person ever to have served as a judge in American history. He was the second father-in-law of the late U.S. Senator Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts, who was only six years Reggie's junior.
