Leander & Emiline (Brooks) Frady - Jackson Co., NC

I'm looking for any & all descendants of Leander Frady and his wife Emiline (Brooks) Frady.They married on 22 Jan 1881 in Jackson County, NC.Leander, called "Lee", was the son of my greatgreat-grandparents William & Sallie (Coxe) Frady.According to the 1900 federal census done in Webster twp. of Jackson County, Lee left Emiline with Harley, 10, Hannah, 7 & Charles, 4/12.Emiline is listed as a "widow" that had given birth to four children with only three still living in 1900.Does anyone have proof of whether Lee died before 1900, resided elsewhere (like jail), or left them?I'm interested in exchanging information with anyone connected to this family.
