Clan Meneely
http://clan.meneely.net/ has obituary info on John C Meneely the junior which
describes John C Meneely the elder went to Texas from Clinton IN in 1856 & then
returned to Clinton IN, but wife Isabella (Cunningham) died in TX 2 Jul 1856--settlers
still had to fight off Indians in those times there. Francis A & Eliz (Meneely) Leach
& family including Edwin A b.ca1845 IN & Margaret Isabell b.1 Apr 1849 IN must
have gone with them--they are in Clinton IN in 1850 Census & in Weatherford Parker Co
TX in 1860 Census. (The death notice you have must be a different Edwin Leach.) I have
Leach descendants of CA-TX of Francis A Leach m. Elizabeth Meneely, then traced them to
Clinton IN & your Msg Bd info. I'll start checking into the info you just
provided. Thank you very much for your help. Yes, I have genealogy software-Personal
Ancestral File v.5 so I can handle GEDCOM files if that's what you're thinking?
Looking forward to your email with further details on Joshua Leach!
& family to see where Francis fits. He is a brother to Abel Wilkinson Leach b.1814?
I've been researching the Joshua D Leach family line but info is pretty skimpy on
Francis A Leach b.abt 1823 OH--father of MD & mother of VA... The unclaimed letter for
Francis Apr 1 1839: he would have been only age 15-16--interesting. Thanks again for your
help. Fred
