Senator James Edmund Bailey - Contact Information

James Edmund Bailey (born August 15, 1822) was a Democratic politician who represented the state of Tennessee in the United States Senate. A member of the Democratic Party, he served one term as a senator and was identified in congressional records by the biographical guide ID B000039. His tenure in the Senate placed him among the historical members of Congress from Tennessee in the post–Civil War era.

Bailey served as a United States Senator for Tennessee from October 15, 1877, to March 3, 1881. During this period, he held office as a senator rather than as a representative of a specific congressional district, and he completed a single term in that role. While specific committee assignments, office contact information, and additional roles are not recorded in the available metadata, his service from 1877 to 1881 marks his principal known contribution to federal legislative history as a former senator from Tennessee.
