Eliphalet Leonard
ID # 1568, (1825-)
| Birth | Eliphalet Leonard was born in 1825 at Ohio. |
| Marriage | He married Leah Vrooman, daughter of George Laws Vrooman and Margaret Bolton, on 9 October 1842 at Jo Daviess County, Illinois. We find a record in book 2 of Jo Daviess County marriages of Eliphalet Leonard marrying Lea Vroman on Oct. 9, 1842. This appears on page 71. |
| Note | The pension petition of Vermicie Woolery Vrooman was made in response to a number of questions. The question was asked as to the people she knew at the different places of abode in her life. She makes mention of her husband's siblings and acknowledges them as such, with the exception of Eliphalet Leonard and his wife Leah Vrooman. Interestingly, Vermicie refers to Eliphalet Leonard as 'Life' Leonard. Probably something like 'Liff' was his nickname. We can document Leah's membership in the family by the court proceeds regarding the children of George L. Vroman vs. his second wife Sarah. |
