But it was never a very popular thing to call a child: according to the Social Security Administration--which has time for this sort of thing--the name Edsel has ranked only as high as 400th on the top 1,000 names for boys, and that was in 1927. More popular names that year included the soaring Kermit, Buford and Elvin. |publisher=[[Time (magazine)]] |date= 7 de setembro de [[2007]]   |accessdate=2007-08-21 }}</ref>

Como o único filho de Ford, Edsel foi criado para assumir os negócios da família, e cresceu consertando carros com seu pai. Ele se tornou o secretário de Ford em [[1915]] e se casou com Eleanor Clay, sobrinha de J. L. Hudson, dono de uma loja de departamento, em [[11 de novembro]] de [[1916]].<ref name="ford">{{cite web|url=http://www.henryfordestate.org/||title=Henry Ford Estate: The Ford Family|publisher=HenryFordEstate.org|accessdate=11/04/2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |first= |last= |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=Henry Ford's Only Son Marries. |url= |quote= |publisher=[[New York Times]] |date=2 de novembro de 1916 |accessdate=2007-07-21 }}</ref> Juntos eles tiveram quatro filhos: [[Henry Ford II]], Benson Ford,<ref>{{cite news |first= |last= |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=Benson Ford, 59, Dies; Grandson Of Pioneering Car Manufacturer; Principal Reason for Decision Criticism Over Dismissal Elected Vice President |url= |quote=Benson Ford, a grandson of the automobile pioneer Henry Ford and a vice president and director of the Ford Motor Company, died early today of an apparent heart attack aboard his yacht, which was docked in the Cheboygan River in Michigan.
