I have been doing research of Warren Lee Samuels', b. 1907, MO, d. 1963, Jasper Co., Mo, family for his son, a friend.I don't believe there is any doubt but Leonidas was the son of Edmond Samuels, b. 13 Jan 1812 in Franklin Co., KY, died 21 Nov 1879 in Lawrence Co., MO.
He was listed with the family in the 1860 Lawrence Co., MO Census, Mt. Vernon Twp, p. 906, Edmond, 48, KY, Catherine, 44, KY, Jacob, 23, IN, Isabella, 18,IN, Arabella, 16, MO, Leonidas, 11, MO(It is not clear whether he was John or James Leonidas, in the 1850 Lawrence Co. MO Census, Dist. 47, p. 297B he is listed as John L. & in the 1900 Lawrence Co. MO Census, Mt. Venron Twp, p. 174B he is listed as James Lee)
In the 1870 Lawrence Co., MO Census, Mt. Vernon Twp, p. 488B, he is listed as Lee Samuels, age 20, MO, wife, Mary, 19, TN, son William E., 2, MO, & Thomas A., 4/12, MO.
In the 1880 Lawrence Co., MO Census, Mt. Vernon Twp, p. 581A, he is listed as Lee Samuels, 28, MO, wife, Sarah F. 29, KY, William, 12, MO, Twilla, 9, MO, Pearl, 4, MO, Cordy, 4/12, MO.Thomas, 9, MO, was listed with a William & Mary J. Clayton as their daughter's step-son.They were listed right next to Lee & Sarah F. Samuels.Both were born in KY.
In the 1900 Lawrence Co., MO Census, Mt. Vernon Twp, p. 174B, he is listed as James Lee Samuels, Oct 1849, MO, wife, S. F., Jul 1849, KY, Pearl, Jan 1878, MO, Cordy, Mar 1880, MO, Lawrence, Mar 1885, MO, May, May 1888, MO, & Lora, Mar 1891, MO.
In the 1880 Lawrence Co., MO Census above, since Lee's son Thomas was listed with a William & Mary J. Clayton as their daughter's step-son, this disputes that she was Sarah T. Lamb, as most records I've seen indicate, but must have been Sarah F. Clayton. She was also listed as Sarah F. in the 1910 & 1920 Census Records, not Sarah T.
