His memorial on Find a Grave reports the birth place as Carter, an unincorporated community, in Garvin County. The latter sounds more likely, knowing where his relatives were. It is likley that he gave this city since he either did not know or could not rememebr the actual community name, or being in California, that was a recognizable city.

The marriage record tell us Leonard married in 1906, yet when he registered for the WWI draft in 1917, he reported he was single. But in the 1920 census, Leonard Carver is reported with his wife and children. This must indicate that the genealogy that linked to this WWI record has chosen the wrong Leonard Carver.

Queen consort of King Edward I "Longshanks". The daughter of Ferdinand III of Castile (St. Ferdinand) and Joan of Ponthieu, she was married to Edward in 1250. She was 9, Edward was 15. Although this was purely an arranged, political marriage, it developed into a strong love affair. The couple had 16 children, but only 4 reached adulthood. Eleanor accompanied Edward on crusade to the Holy Land from 1270 to 1272, during which time she is reported to have saved his life after he was wounded. They returned to England, and upon the death of King Henry III, were crowned in 1272. She died in Nottinghamshire while en route to Scotland to join Edward. So grieved was Edward at her death, he ordered a cross erected at each stop her funeral cortege made during the journey back to London. Of the 12 "Eleanor Crosses", three are still standing today.

"Saint Ferdinand III (August 5, 1199 - May 30, 1252), was the King of Castile from 1217 and King of Galicia and Leon from 1230. Through his second marriage he was also Count of Aumale. He finished the work done by his maternal grandfather Alfonso VIII and consolidated the Reconquista. In 1231, he permanently united Castile and Galicia-León. He was canonized in 1671 and, in Spanish, he is Fernando el Santo or San Fernando. "St Ferdinand was the son of Alfonso IX of León and Berenguela of Castile.
