If you go to the location listed below, you can read them for yourself. His personal life during this period also brought much change. Edison's mother died in 1871, and later that year, he married a former employee, Mary Stilwell, on Christmas Day. While Edison clearly loved his wife, their relationship was fraught with difficulties, primarily his preoccupation with work and her constant illnesses. Edison would often sleep in the lab and spent much of his time with his male colleagues. Nevertheless, their first child, Marion, was born in February 1873, followed by a son, Thomas, Jr., born on January 1876. Edison nicknamed the two "Dot" and "Dash," referring to telegraphic terms. A third child, William Leslie was born in October 1878.
So, his children were Marion, Thomas, Jr., and their nicknames were Dot and Dash referring to the Morse code and a third child was born later named William Leslie.
I hope this helps you. You can read more about his life at the web address below.
