His great grandmother Elizabeth Capps Hussey put an end to that 2 CONT by stating there would be no adoption of any of her great grandchildren! 1 NOTE His grandmother, who didn't like the name Roy, called him Jay. His mother moved with him and the Samuel Purdy family to California in 1937. He went to first thru third grade as Samuel James (Jay) Purdy. After his mother's marriage, without 2 CONT adoption, his name was changed to Jay Clark Smith. He went to 17 grammar schools and four high schools, graduating from Modesto High School, CA, in 1951. Roy worked as a janitor, shoe salesman, operating engineer, and carpenter until joining 2 CONT the United States Air Force in November, 1952. 1 NOTE Serving as an enlisted ground radio operator until 1959, he attained the rank of staff sergeant. He changed his name back to Roy Clarke Leggitt just prior to his first marriage. Upon completion of officers candidate school he was commissioned 2 CONT as a second lieutenant in 1959, serving as a communications officer and later as a communications-electronics staff officer.

Leggett was a private in Colonel Jett Thomas' 2nd Regiment (Infantry) Georgia Militia. I later 2 CONT confirmed this in the Index to War of 1812 service records for Volunteer Soldiers from Georgia. ----- Mathew Leggett's entry in the 1820 Putnam County federal census is in the Captain Mathew Legget District. He is single and his occupation is 2 CONT as an overseer. ----- According to the 1820 and 1821 Land Lotteries of Georgia, Pub. Ga. Geneal. Reports, Pulaski County - 1820, page 213, Mathew H. Leggett receives Lot 183, Section 7, H. Kindricks Militia District, Irwin County, GA. 2 CONT Interestingly, Lewis Leggett is listed in the same lottery on the same page (213), as an orphan, meaning his father had died after serving in the Revolutionary, 1812, or Indian Wars. Since Mathew later named his last child Lewis, we could 2 CONT suspect that this Lewis and Mathew were brothers, or at least cousins. ----- From the GA Archives card file, quoted by our cousin Charlotte Thomas Marshall, 1 NOTE Mathew Leggett -- Ens., Putnam Co., Dec. 3, 1816 - Aug. 23, 1818 (MR 1808-29, p. 10) Lieut., Putnam Co., April 5, 1819 - Aug. 4, 1819 (MR 1808-29, p. 32) Capt., Putnam Co., June 4, 1819 - July 25, 1821 (MR 1808-29, p. 36) ----- Mathew was in 2 CONT Putnam County for the 1820 and 1830 federal census. Before 1840, he and Elizabeth had moved to Macon County. ----- In the 1820 Putnam County federal census, Mathew is listed as a single individual between the ages of 26 and 45. The most 2 CONT interesting revalation of the census information is that his entry immediately follows the census entry of Alcey Leggett. She is listed as a female older than age 45 with two females between 10 and 16. From this, I have assumed Alcey is 2 CONT Mathew's mother and that his father was deceased in 1820. ----- On Aug 15, 1823, Mathew H. Leggett purchased 75 acres in lot 228 and 35 acres in lot 229 in the 10th district of the original Baldwin county, now Putnam County, from John Rook for 2 CONT the sum of $350. (Book K, page 359.) ----- On Jan 2, 1824, Matthew H. Leggitt (clearly spelled with an "i") purchased 75 acres in lots 228 and 229 of Putnam County (formally Baldwin County) for the sum of $350 from Hugh Millican. (Book K, 2 CONT page 455.) ----- The 1824 Putnam County tax digest indicates Matthew H. Leggett 2 polls land on Murder Creek adjoining Pounds 77 cents tax. ----- The 1825 tax digest indicates Mathew H. Leggitt 3 polls 202 1/2 A in Pike Co. and 490 A in 2 CONT Irwin. 1.68 1/4 tax. ----- The 1826 tax digest indicates Matthew Leggett 3 polls 202 1/2 A in Pike Co. and 490 A in Irwin Co. 1.69 tax. ----- In the 1830 Putnam County federal census, Mathew and his family are listed in the Captain John B. 2 CONT Mathis District. He is listed as between 30-40, his wife 20-30, 1 male and 1 female less than 5, and 1 male and 1 female between 5 and 10. He also has two slave women between 10 and 20. ----- On Jul 20, 1830, Matthew H. Leggett purchased 132 2 CONT 1/2 acres in the 14th district of originally Baldwin, now Putnam County for $550 from Daniel C. Maund. (Book N, page 305.) ----- The 1830 tax digest indicates Mathew H. Legget 3 persons liable to tax (slaves & his poll) 202 1/2 A. Pike Co. 2 CONT and 490 Irwin Co. granted to self 1.68 tax. ----- On November 20, 1834, Mathew H. Leggitt of Houston County, GA, purchased lots 181 and 182 in the 15th District of Houston County for $1400. Contained 405 (2 times 202 1/2) acres. (Book F, page 2 CONT 534.) ----- On December 15, 1835, Mathew H. Leggett of Houston County, GA, purchased lot 56 in the 14th District of Houston County for $750. Contained 202 1/2 acres. (Book F, page 702.) ----- 1 NOTE Of additional interest in Book F, within about a five mile area in the 14th District, Nelson Legitt, Azer S. B. Legett, and Isham Dinkins were involved in land transactions. ----- The tax digest of 1838 indicated Matthew H. Legget paid one poll 2 CONT tax, had 2 slaves, and 202 1/2 3q..oH in Captain Singleton's District, District 15, Macon County. Tax was $1.12 1/2 mills. ----- In the 1840 Macon County 770 District Georgia Militia, Mathew H. Leggate is listed as between age 40 and 50, with 2 CONT one male less than 5, two between five and ten, one female less than five, one between 10 and 15 and one between 30 and 40. He had four male and eight female slaves. ----- Also of interest in the 1840 census is a Sarah Leggate in Macon County 2 CONT 814 District Georgia Militia listed as between 40 - 50 with one male between 20 - 30, one female between 6 - 10, and three female between 10 and 15. Sarah could have been the wife of Mathew's deceased brother. (However, the 1860 Macon census 2 CONT lists a Gilbert D. Leggett who was born about 1819 in South Carolina. He would be the same age as the above one male between 20 - 30. In 1994, a distant cousin, Maxcy Foxworth of Marion County, SC, told me this is Gilbert D. LeGette, son of 2 CONT Abner LeGette, son of Absalom 3 Legett. The Asa Leggett mentioned in Elizabeth Leggitt's notes is Gilbert's brother. Isn't this interesting that we find these two branches of the family in Macon County at the same time? ) ----- The Montezuma 2 CONT Record, Friday, April 12, 1889 "As you are Now so Once, etc.", a letter to the editor indicated "Take the following list of taxpayers of the 770th District G. M., June 10, 1843. Many of them worth more than a hundred thousand dollars, who were 2 CONT the money kings of the community, to whom the merchant in his hour of need bent the knew of suppliance and begget the use of the planter's surplus. You, of the present generation, scan the list and you will find the name of just one man of all 2 CONT the number who is living today. How vain is earthly glory.

John McKenzie, Sr., ... Mathew H. Legget, ..." ----- According to the History of Macon County, by an Act approved December 20, 1849, Matthew Leggett (et al) was appointed trustees of the Wellington Academy and made a body 2 CONT corporate. This academy was situated about a mile northeast of Spalding, and was used for many years. ----- The 1850 federal census was the first to include the names of the spouse and children. In the 1850 Macon County 770 District census 2 CONT lists Mathew as age 58, a farmer with a wealth of $6,000. The census also included James - 17, Edmund - 15, William - 9, Elizabeth - 47, Leome - 14, Martha I (or J) - 8, Emaline - 4, and Bethany - 1 1/2. He had 24 slaves. The census 2 CONT information is on page 116 and dated 13 August 1850. ----- Combining the 1850 names with the previous census information, there must have been four older, grown children who had left home by 1850. They would have been a boy and girl born 2 CONT between 1820-1825 and a boy and a girl born between 1825-1830. ----- 1860 Macon County Georgia census, page 120, 770 District, post office Montezuma, 16 Aug 1860, shows Mathew as a farmer with real estate of $10,000 and personal estate of 2 CONT $18,585. Elizabeth is 52, Ednund is 25 and a farmer with $200, Martha J. is 16, Evaline is 14, Bethany is 11, and my great grandfather Lewis F. first appears as age 9. James is listed separately as 28 and a farmer with $5,000 in real estate. 2 CONT His wife is Elizabeth A., age 27. 1 NOTE LEGGETT, Mathew H. 68 M Farmer $10,000 $18,583 GA Elizabeth 52 F GA Edmund 25 M Farmer 1,200 GA Martha J. 16 F GA Evaline 14 F 2 CONT GA school Bathenia 11 F GA school Lewis F. 9 M GA school HARPER, (none listed) 50 M Teacher, Comm.

The 1860 census indicates his real estate holdings were $10,000 and personal assets of $18,583. In 2 CONT 1992 dollars, those combined assets would amount to roughly $500,000. ----- State of Georgia Macon County This last will and testament of Mathew H. Leggitt of Macon County and state aforesaid. In the name of God, Amen. Knowing that it is 2 CONT appointed that all men shall die, and doing it properly to arrange my earthly affairs in such way as I consider Just and fair to my family. I Mathew H.

He said "His father was the youngest of 7 sons and they lived in Georgia on a plantation. He said the older brothers were playing poker one night and started losing. 2 CONT They lost all their money and finally the only thing left to wager was the plantation. The debt was so large the winner said "double or nothing" and they lost the hand and the plantation. So that was the reason his father changed the spelling 2 CONT of his last name and moved his family to east Texas." He also said they were in a terrible flu epidemic and his eyes had been very weak from that time on. 1 NOTE Needless to say, this story does not coincide with the will of his father and mother and the indenture where Clemintina effectively buy's his portion of their estate. 1 NOTE The following is from Preston Leggitt's Leggitt Family History (1994): 1 NOTE CHAPTER 6. LEWIS FILLMORE "JACK" LEGGITT (My Great Grandfather) 1 NOTE I read somewhere that after the War Between the States, many of the houses in the South were found vacant with the initials G.T.T. scrawled across the door -- Gone To Texas. 1 NOTE Lewis Fillmore "Jack" Leggitt was the youngest son of Matthew Hunter Leggett and Elizabeth Allums Leggett. He was 13 years old when his father Matthew died. His mother Elizabeth died when he was 18. He lived for a while with Doctor Edmund A. 2 CONT Leggitt, his brother. He is shown on the 1870 Census as "still at school, and living with Edmund and family. 1 NOTE He married Lelia E. Dinkins on January 24, 1878 in Valdosta, Lowndes Co. Georgia. They had 3 children: 1 NOTE 1.) Oscar Jack Leggitt born October 14, 1878 in Valdosta, Georgia. Oscar married Maggie Inez Hussey Harrington in 1915 in Berlin, Oklahoma and died February 20, 1954 in Crawford, Oklahoma. 1 NOTE 2.) Louis F. Leggitt, born September 21, 1881 in Macon County, Georgia Louis married Effie Octavene White December 15, 1901 1 NOTE 3.) Nonie D. Leggitt, born December 14, 1888 in Texas. died August 26, 1933. 1 NOTE Times were very hard in Georgia after the war and it was hard to make a living. Between 1881 and 1888, Lewis Fillmore moved his young family to Texas. They first came to Caddo Mills, near Greenville, Hunt County, Texas. 1 NOTE At this time, there were already other Leggetts in Texas. Leggetts had been in Texas at least since 1836 when John T. Leggett and his brother came from Pike County Georgia to fight against the Mexicans. Matthew H. Leggett owned land in Pike 2 CONT County in the late 1820's and early 1830's. I don't know if any of these people were even related but more than likely they were at least cousins. As early as 1811, a David Leggett had received a pass to go West through the Mississippi 2 CONT Territory. A J.S. Leggett got married in nearby Collin County of Texas in 1870, at least 11 years before Lewis Fillmore Leggitt brought his young family to Texas. This county is Northeast of Dallas near Lake Lavon, very close to Caddo Mills, 2 CONT where Lewis Fillmore first settled in Texas. There were several other Leggett families in the Caddo Mills- Lavon-Greenville area including a Doctor J. L. Leggett who died in 1902. Perhaps Lewis Fillmore Leggitt first heard about Texas through 2 CONT letters from these people to relatives back in Georgia. 1 NOTE Lewis' wife Lelia Denkins Leggitt reportedly died as a result of complications in the childbirth of Nonie in 1888. Nonie was mentally retarded from birth and never progressed very far in school. 1 NOTE Lewis F. married his 2nd wife, Leanda Jo Denkins in 1892. She was the sister of Lelia, his first wife. She was always known to the kids as "Aunt Jo." He and his family were in the Caddo Mills area for the 1900 Census. He listed his 2 CONT occupation as farmer at the time. Residing in the house were Lewis, Leanda (Jo), Louis, and Nonie. (RCL note: see Leanda's notes.) 1 NOTE By 1910 Census, Lewis Fillmore Leggitt was again a widower. Living in the house were Nonie, Lewis, a Henrietta McKenzie. Aunt Thelma said Mrs. Mckenzie was the mother of Lelia and Leanda Jo. 1 NOTE Aunt Thelma Lea recalled that he worked as a traveling salesman or peddler. He operated a mule drawn wagon traveling from house to house, farm to farm,selling pots, pans, sewing notions, food items, tools, etc...and bartering in most cases 2 CONT because most people had no money. Underneath the wagon, cages were mounted which held the chickens and eggs that many people would barter for goods. 1 NOTE Lewis Fillmore Leggitt died April 2, 1911. He died at Caddo Mills, Texas. I have been unable to locate his grave at this time. 1 NOTE 1 SOUR @S4@ 1 FAMS @F14@ 1 FAMS @F13@ 1 FAMC @F12@ 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 MAY 1995 0 @I18@ INDI 1 NAME Oscar Jack /Leggitt/ 1 SEX M 1 BIRT 2 DATE 14 OCT 1879 2 PLAC Valdosta, Laurens, Georgia 1 DEAT 2 DATE 20 FEB 1954 2 PLAC Crawford, Roger Mills, Oklahoma 1 BURI 2 PLAC Berlin, Roger Mills, Oklahoma 1 NOTE According to his family, Oscar was born in Valdosta, GA 18 October 1879.

She had a small daughter. He nursed his wife and cared for the little girl 2 CONT until the woman died. He took the girl back to Texas to her mother's family. 1 NOTE A family story tells of the time, before Oscar married Inez, that he went on a cattle drive to Kansas. The men ran out of money on the way home. They bought a cow for $2.00. They shot her and ground the meat into hamburger. They sold 2 CONT hamburgers to get enought money to get home. 1 NOTE One night at a dance in the home of John Taylor he met the sparkling vivacious young widow, Inez Harrington. They were married in 1914. His gentle nature was never a match for her aggressive domineering spirit. However, he did his best to 2 CONT provide for their growing brood and he loved her dearly until he died in 1954. 1 NOTE Naomi Hussey wrote Mae Leggitt in 1963 "Your own Father had a very marked sense of rhythm. All of you probably are too young to remember when he and your mother were much younger, he danced with great enjoyment and skill. I am sure that is 2 CONT akin to music appreciation." 1 NOTE From Oscar the children learned to be kind and think of others; also, he stressed always pay your debts. He was a kind and gentle man. He taught the older girls to read and wright. Both parents were very intelligent and put a great store on 2 CONT books and newspapers. 1 NOTE One time the young girls needed to go to Elk City to buy school clothes. Oscar took them in their old '26 Dodge pickup. Going and coming they had 21 flats. One day Oscar took the Dodge to Sayre and traded it even for a Model A Ford. 1 NOTE Once four of the children went to a party over north of Spritzer's Store on the grey mare, ol' John. When they came home late, they all went to sleep on her back. Ol' John came right on home and up to the barn door. 1 NOTE When yo-yo's came into vogue, the girls fashiioned a 20 foot string on one. They would sit on the platform of the windmill and yo-yo. 1 NOTE At breakfast Oscar would always say, "The start of another day, until someone spoils it." Someone usually did. 1 NOTE There was a dry sand bed north of their house. Oscar made money pulling cars through it with a team of horses. 1 NOTE Oscar was a farmer most of the time after he married Inez. For a few years, just before his death, he lived with his daughter Clara in California and worked as a laborer in the construction business. His children recall that Oscar had many 2 CONT physical ailments, brought on by hard work, no doubt. They feel he really didn't like to farm. He would have much preferred a regular day time job. 1 NOTE There is a discrepancy in the date of Oscar's death. At the time of his death, he was living in a mobile home on Jack and Kate McDaniel in Crawford, OK. He was found dead the morning of February 20, 1954. We do not know if he died the night 2 CONT of February 19 or the morning of February 20. The tombstone indicates February 19 and the obituary indicates February 20.

Louis must have moved since there were no county boundary changes between 1910 and 1920. 1 NOTE The following is from Preston Leggitt's Leggitt Family History (1994): 1 NOTE CHAPTER 7. LOUIS AND OCTA 1 NOTE LOUIS F. LEGGITT was my Grandfather. (Papaw). He was born September 21, 1881 in Macon County, Georgia. By the age of 6, his father, LEWIS FILLMORE LEGGETT, had brought the young family to Texas. He grew up on the farm near Caddo Mills in 2 CONT East Texas. I can find no record of a middle name, just the initial F. I am sure it is Fillmore, the same as his dad's, but Aunt Thelma Lea believed there was no middle name, just the initial. 1 NOTE Louis married EFFIE OCTAVENE WHITE (Octa)(Mamaw) on December 15th, 1901. She was the daughter of George White who had migrated to Texas from Missouri. The Whites had been very wealthy before the Civil War. Like many Southern families, they 2 CONT were practically destitute after the war. George was known to like his liquor. George and wife in later years lived at Stamford, Texas and ran a bus line there. He and his wife are buried at Stamford. 1 NOTE Louis was farming at the time and worked some as a carpenter. In March of 1902, their first son, RAYMOND LEGGITT, was born. 1 NOTE THELMA RENEE LEGGITT was born July 12th, 1905. Aunt Thelma indicated to me that she was born in a house on Main Street in Caddo Mills, Texas. 1 NOTE In 1907, my aunt, LILLIE ALATIA LEGGITT, was born. 1 NOTE In July of 1909, my uncle, WILLIE ROY LEGGITT, was born. 1 NOTE Aunt Thelma reported that they rented land and moved a lot during these years. By the 1910 census, Louis had moved his family West to Munday in Knox County. Louis was 28, and Octa was 26. They had 4 children at the time. Raymond was 7, Thelma 2 CONT was 4, Alatia was 2, and Roy was 11 months old. Papaw was working as a farmer and carpenter. 1 NOTE At this same time, (1910 Census), Lewis Fillmore Leggitt was still living in Caddo Mills and employed as a peddler. He was a widower and 58 at the time. Living with him were his Mother-in-Law, Henrietta McKenzie, and Papaw's sister, Nona, who 2 CONT was retarded. She was 21 at the time. 1 NOTE During the winter of 1910, Lewis Fillmore got sick and Papaw moved his family back to Caddo Mills. On April 2nd, 1911, Papaw's dad, LOUIS FILLMORE LEGGITT, died at Caddo Mills in Hunt County, Texas. 1 NOTE After moving back to Caddo Mills, Papaw worked for a while as a carpenter in Greenville. He did quite a bit of work for one of the wealthy Greenville lawyers. The lawyer took a liking to him and offered to let him rent a farm owned by the 2 CONT lawyer. The blackland farm was located in the fertile bottomlands of the Trinity River. The family moved to this farm near Lavon, Texas, and farmed there until moving to O"Brien, Texas in Knox county about 1919. 1 NOTE On May 3rd, 1915, my father, GLENN CURTCHELL LEGGITT, was born on the farm near Lavon, Texas. The farm on which Glenn was born, now lies at the bottom of Lake Lavon, Northeast of Dallas. The lake was built in the 1930's and the land was 2 CONT flooded. The house where my father was born was supposedly moved up out of the way of the filling lake. 1 NOTE I remember as a child, our family going to Roy and Bert Leggitt's house in Gladewater, Texas to visit. We then all piled in a car and drove Northwest up to the Lake Lavon area. By this time (Probably in the late 1950's) Lake Lavon had long 2 CONT ago been filled up to the dam by the Corps of Engineers. I remember Dad and Uncle Roy were amazed to find the house that they had grown up in. The house had been moved out of the lake bottom area before the lake was filled. A number of the 2 CONT houses in the area had been moved to this location near one of the state parks and sold to individuals to rebuild in this new location. In 1993, I drove to this location and found 1 house located in Lakeland Park subdivision which would have 2 CONT been old enough to fit this description. I could not confirm that this was the house. This park was located on the East side of Lavon Lake (Northeast of Dallas) and situated about halfway between Lavon and Farmersville. 1 NOTE By the way, there are a number of Leggetts in the IOOF cemetery in Farmersville. I do not know their relationship if any. 1 NOTE World War I started in 1914. The war continued until 1918. None of the Leggitt family served in the military, but Mamaw's brother, Alfred White, was in the navy. Her sister, Ada, married Cass Wattenberger. Mamaw's parents, Mr. and Mrs. White 2 CONT owned a bus line running between Stamford and Abilene, Texas. Mamaw's father, Geroge White, died and was buried in Stamford, Texas. His wife "Granny White" was buried there also. 1 NOTE My aunt, OPAL VIOLA LEGGITT was born in 1917 on the same farm as my dad. The following year, 1918, my aunt, OLETA ALLENE LEGGITT, was also born there. By 1919, Papaw had moved the family back out to Knox County and this time settled near 2 CONT Rochester and O'Brien. The land was brown instead of black, and the land was much sandier, but the cotton grew well and so did the young family. Papaw worked as a farmer and supplemented his income as a carpenter. 1 NOTE Raymond married Opal Dunlap. They moved to the "High Plains" sometime in the 1920's. He purchased land South of Lubbock at Woodrow (Cooper) and began farming. He was very successful and later purchased additional farmland 7 miles Northwest 2 CONT of Shallowater, 2 miles Southeast of Whitharral, and at Spade, Texas. He loved to hunt and went on several big-game hunts in New Mexico and Colorado. 1 NOTE Raymond talked his mother and father into moving to the "High Plains." This was probably sometime in the late 1920's. I can remember the stories Dad told me of coming up onto the "Caprock" in the old truck with the furniture and belongings of 2 CONT Mamaw and Papaw. Dad said that they were moving in an old Model T truck. When they got to the big hill up onto the Caprock at Silverton, the truck did not have enough power to pull itself up the hill. Since trucks use a much lower gear for 2 CONT the reverse gear, they turned the truck around and backed up the 2 mile hill to get on top of the Caprock. 1 NOTE After a year or two, Mamaw reportedly hated the "High Plains" and the annual dust storms in the Spring. She talked Papaw into moving back to Rochester. 1 NOTE After moving back to Rochester, Dad "courted" and married RETTA LOUISE ELLIS in Rule, Texas. They were married on October 17th, 1934. I will tell what I know about these two in Chapter 8. 1 NOTE Mamaw and Papaw ran a filling station for a while in Rochester until he retired. The filling station was on the South side of the street on Main Street just North of the High School. They lived in a white frame house across the street East of 2 CONT the High School. 1 NOTE Their daughter Alatia married Paul Melton. Paul and Alatia farmed about 6 miles Southwest of Rochester and looked after Mamaw and Papaw. Their children attended the Rochester schools. 1 NOTE I can remember a few times when we would go to visit and stay with Mamaw and Papaw. He was a very stern man and all the children had to really behave or he would get on to them. He probably was very proud of his grandkids. But, I believe he 2 CONT was a firm believer in the motto that children should be seen and not heard. 1 NOTE Papaw died in 1952. My last recollection of Papaw was going to his funeral and then afterwards the aunts and uncles cleaned out his closets. I remember the white frame house on the East side of the street and the big, cool, shady porch. I 2 CONT remember the big floral patterns on the carpet. Mamaw gave me the Steroscope and several hundred pictures of the World War I times to look at and keep as a momemto of my Grandfather. After a year or so, Mamaw came to live with us at the farm 2 CONT at Shallowater. 1 NOTE 1 SOUR @S4@ 1 FAMS @F26@ 1 FAMC @F13@ 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 MAY 1995 0 @I20@ INDI 1 NAME Nona D. /Leggitt/ 1 SEX F 1 BIRT 2 DATE 14 DEC 1888 2 PLAC Texas 1 DEAT 2 DATE 26 AUG 1933 2 PLAC Woodward, Oklahoma 1 NOTE Source: 1900 Texas Census. 1 NOTE 1 SOUR @S4@ 1 FAMC @F13@ 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 MAY 1995 0 @I21@ INDI 1 NAME Leila E. /Dinkins/ 1 SEX F 1 BIRT 2 DATE 1861 2 PLAC Georgia 1 BURI 2 PLAC Berlin Cemetery, Berlin, Roger Mills, Oklahoma 1 NOTE Source: 1880 Georgia census, Cobb County. 1 NOTE Source: 1870 Georgia census, Macon County.

However, her approximate birth year (based on 1900 TX census) of Dec 1850 makes her too old to be the daughter of Leila. Here is a quote from Preston's Book-2 notes: 1 NOTE Lewis F. married his 2nd wife, Leanda Jo Denkins in 1892. She was the sister of Lelia, his first wife. She was always known to the kids as "Aunt Jo." He and his family were in the Caddo Mills area for the 1900 Census. He listed his 2 CONT occupation as farmer at the time. Residing in the house were Lewis, Leanda (Jo), Louis, and Nonie. 1 NOTE From this I can hypothesize two situations: 1 NOTE First, if Preston is right, Leanda Jo Denkins must be Leila's half sister since she couldn't be Henrietta Dinkins daughter - she would have to be the daughter of Leila's father by a previous marriage. 1 NOTE Second, Leanda Jo Denkins could have been Leila's aunt, the sister of her father. I tend to favor this second situation since my assumption is that the father is Charles M. Dinkins, born about 1837 according to the 1860 Dooley County, GA 2 CONT federal census. 1 NOTE In either case, The History of Macon County mentions on page 674 that Macon County Wedding Book B indicates a marriage of Warren W. Davis and Leander J. Denkins in 1868. This Leander J. apparently was widowed (or divorced) and married Lewis F. 2 CONT Leggitt in 1892 after the apparent death of Leila shortly following the birth of Nonie in 1888. 1 NOTE 1 SOUR @S4@ 1 FAMS @F14@ 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 MAY 1995 0 @I23@ INDI 1 NAME Margaret Inez /Hussey/ 1 SEX F 1 BIRT 2 DATE 24 MAY 1886 2 PLAC Vernon, Wilbarger, Texas 1 DEAT 2 DATE 5 FEB 1980 2 PLAC Sayre, Beckham, Oklahoma 1 BURI 2 DATE 8 FEB 1980 2 PLAC Berlin Cemetary, Roger Mills, Oklahoma 1 NOTE Much of the historical reminiscences comes from stories recalled by her children, Clara, Jack, Kate, and Mae.

The young couple filed on land north of Berlin near the Indian Hills. They had two pretty blond girls. When the 2 CONT girls were very small, in about 1910 Ernest developed the dread disease tuberculosis. They went by covered wagon to New Mexico so Ernest could regain his health. However, the illness soon overcame Ernest and he died in 1912. Inez returned to 2 CONT the claim with her two girls. Her brother, Franzel Hussey, came to live with her and do the heavy work. 1 NOTE Inez met Oscar Leggitt at a dance at the John Taylor farm. Her sister Naomi recalled that Inez and Oscar had great natural musical and danced beautifully together. She married Oscar Leggitt in 1914. They lived for a while on the Pittsburg 2 CONT Ranch north of Berlin. They lived in a house made of sandstone and logs. It was one of the buildings surrounding the main ranch house. Later, they moved to a small two room house near Edenview. 1 NOTE In about 1920 the family lived in a half dugout with tar paper on the exposed lumber. A big rain had washed some of the tar paper from the boards and down into the dugout. Hazel woke up in the night and stepped out of bed onto water and 2 CONT drowned kittens. At that same place the girls got very sick, so Inez called Dr. Steel from Berlin. When the girls heard the horse and buggy coming, the big girls led the little ones out the washed hole in the wall and hid until they heard the 2 CONT buggey leaving, they were probably expected black draught (a popular purgative of the time that had the consistency of dried tea leaves and about a tablespoon was taken orally dry!). Anyway, they all got well. 1 NOTE In the early 1920's, Oscar and Inez moved their growing family to some land they purchased from the Pittsburg Land Company. It was seven miles northwest of Berlin. Inez's brother, Elmer Hussey, died from mustard gas he had been exposed to 2 CONT during World War I. Inez received a portion of his insurance. She used the money to build a house and set out an orchard. The soil was sandy and very fertile. They built a big comfortable house with six rooms. While a Mr. Montgomery from 2 CONT Needmore was building the new house, Hazel and Clara hauled a load of lumber from Cheyenne in the wagon. The girls recall they were given a lot of responsibility at a very young age. They always did their best. 1 NOTE Before the house was finished, one day Inez told the girls to throw their mattress out of an upstairs window and take it to the new house. She then took the mattress inside and gave birth to Jack. 1 NOTE The girls recall that Inex was a school teacher and worked through the years with the county agent to learn new skills of farm work. 1 NOTE Oscar and Inez had a thing about varmits getting their chickens. One time Inez shot a hawk in the air with a chicken, through the screen door she killed the hawk. 1 NOTE Oscar raised cotton and broom corn to sell for a cash crop. He raised cane to make into molasses and feed for the stock. They remained on the farm until about 1950 when the last of the seven children was raised and gone. 1 NOTE For the next twenty or so years, Inez lived in a little house in Cheyenne, OK. She remained very active in the community until she was nearly 85. She would frequently contribute historical articles to the local new papers. 1 NOTE She maintained her thing about varmits. A family story has it that a neighbor's bull would lean over her fence and eat Inez's garden. On day she got fed up with it. She emptied the shot out of shotgun shell and put salt rind in the casing. 2 CONT When she shot the bull with it, the two rinds made a perfect "X" on the bull's forehead and killed it dead away! 1 NOTE When Inez died in 1980, this story circulated all over Cheyenne. Several years earlier in Cheyenne the gas was supplied by a very unreliable pipe line coming from the south. It was out of service a lot of the time one winter. Giles Peterson 2 CONT managed the repairs. Residents had to manage the best they could for some heat. Inez usually went to a neighbor's house. One day she met Giles Peterson on the street. She said, "When I die, should I go to hell, I hope you are furnishing the 2 CONT gas." 1 NOTE 1 NOTE --Other Fields 1 NOTE Ref Number: 29R0-R1 1 NOTE 1 SOUR @S4@ 1 FAMS @F15@ 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 MAY 1995 0 @I24@ INDI 1 NAME Clara Clark /Leggitt/ 1 SEX F 1 BIRT 2 DATE 11 JUL 1917 2 PLAC Berlin, Roger Mills, Oklahoma 1 NOTE Source: Leggitt family records. 1 NOTE Clara was born while her parents were living on the Pittsburg Ranch north of Berlin. When she was three the family moved to a small two room house near Edenview where she later started school. When Clara was in the third grade her parents 2 CONT purchased some land from the Pittsburg Land Company seven miles northwest of Berlin. They built a big comfortable six room house there where Clara grew up. 1 NOTE About a year after her son Roy was born in 1933, Clara and he went to live with the Samual and Bonnie Purdy family in Carter, OK. Clara assisted Bonnie in the homemaking chores and did the family book keeping. She finished high school while 2 CONT at Carter in 1936. By the summer of 1937 the dust bowl made it impossible to continue making a living in Oklahoma and the family moved to California in a manner similar to John Steinbeck's novel, Grapes of Wrath. 1 NOTE They picked cotton and fruit the first years, but by 1940 the family had become quite successful. In 1941 Clara married Chester Leonard Smith who had a girl Roy's age and two nearly grown boys. She and Leonard had another family of a boy and 2 CONT two girls by 1946. 1 NOTE Leonard was primarily a carpenter and mechanic during the war (WWII) and post war years. However, he was seriously injured in an accident in the early 1950s and could no longer work doing physical labor. He and Clara later had a series of 2 CONT grocery stores and Clara entered the real estate business in the 1960s.

In March of 1902, their first son, RAYMOND LEGGITT, was born. 1 NOTE Raymond married Opal Dunlap. They moved to the "High Plains" sometime in the 1920's. He purchased land South of Lubbock at Woodrow (Cooper) and began farming. He was very successful and later purchased additional farmland 7 miles Northwest 2 CONT of Shallowater, 2 miles Southeast of Whitharral, and at Spade, Texas. He loved to hunt and went on several big-game hunts in New Mexico and Colorado. 1 NOTE Raymond talked his mother and father into moving to the "High Plains." This was probably sometime in the late 1920's. I can remember the stories Dad told me of coming up onto the "Caprock" in the old truck with the furniture and belongings of 2 CONT Mamaw and Papaw. Dad said that they were moving in an old Model T truck. When they got to the big hill up onto the Caprock at Silverton, the truck did not have enough power to pull itself up the hill. Since trucks use a much lower gear for the 2 CONT reverse gear, they turned the truck around and backed up the 2 mile hill to get on top of the Caprock. 1 NOTE After a year or two, Mamaw reportedly hated the "High Plains" and the annual dust storms in the Spring. She talked Papaw into moving back to Rochester. 1 NOTE 1952. RAYMOND LEGGITT died.

Aunt Thelma indicated to me that she was born in a house on Main Street in Caddo Mills, Texas. 1 NOTE Aunt Thelma married John Solon Lea on January 1st, 1922. They moved to Matador, where he ran the "ice house." This was where water was frozen into ice and sold in blocks to the townspeople to refrigerate their food. Solon and Thelma later 2 CONT sold the ice house and bought a farm tractor dealership. Several bad crop years in the area put an end to this business. They moved to Lubbock where Solon became a city policeman. They lived just South of Texas Tech University. Solon later 2 CONT became a city judge in Lubbock. In the early 1950's they semi- retired and moved to a farm near Roundup, Northwest of Shallowater. 1 NOTE Uncle Solon and Aunt Thelma Lea had 3 children: 1 NOTE 1.

We then all piled in a car and drove Northwest up to the Lake Lavon area. By this time (Probably in the late 1950's) Lake Lavon had long 2 CONT ago been filled up to the dam by the Corps of Engineers. I remember Dad and Uncle Roy were amazed to find the house that they had grown up in. The house had been moved out of the lake bottom area before the lake was filled. A number of the 2 CONT houses in the area had been moved to this location near one of the state parks and sold to individuals to rebuild in this new location. In 1993, I drove to this location and found 1 house located in Lakeland Park subdivision which would have 2 CONT been old enough to fit this description. I could not confirm that this was the house. This park was located on the East side of Lavon Lake (Northeast of Dallas) and situated about halfway between Lavon and Farmersville. By the way, there are 2 CONT a number of Leggetts in the IOOF cemetery in Farmersville. I do not know their relationship if any. 1 NOTE Preston says Willie Roy lived in Gladewater, TX. 1 NOTE 1 SOUR @S4@ 1 FAMC @F26@ 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 MAY 1995 0 @I72@ INDI 1 NAME Jordan /Leggett/ 1 SEX M 1 BIRT 2 DATE 1797 2 PLAC Robeson, North Carolina 1 NOTE !Birth: IGI North Carolina 1 NOTE Some Burk Co.
