Notes

  • It is not clear from the records how this child's name should be pronounced.  I have used the 1860 spelling Leacy since that is the one used by most of the family genealogies.  It is spelled Lecy on her marriage record.  Her death record records her name as Lessie, indicating perhaps it was pronounced Less-ee.  But her actual death certificate spells the name Lisie.
