Hello,

On the website of classicshaving.com I found these beauties:

Are they made by Edwin Jagger?
At least the heads are made by Edwin Jagger?
If the heads are made by Parker, are they interchangable with Edwin Jagger's?

I cannot seem to locate the thread. But I do recall someone writing that the Rooney is a re-branded Edwin Jagger as is the Caswell Massey razor. I would assume the heads are interchangeable.

Not EJ. Parker.

Yes, the handles will be interchangeable, and thus able to be used between the various heads. The Muhle, Edwin Jagger, Merkur, and Parker heads should all use the same size thread, and thread pitch, so the handles would thus be interchangeable.

I wouldn't try to swap the parts of the heads around though, as those are specific to each individual head; they are precision parts that are designed to only fit with the corresponding part.
