Looking for infomation on George W Leonard b 1816 AL d 1907 Newton Co,TX. He married ca 1840 Susan M ? Weeks ..b 1818 GA. They had 12 children. Children born in MS: James Hardy b 1841, Annis Aboline b 1843, Joseph John Henry Pearson b1845, Thomas Jefferson b 1846, Temperance b 1847, George Washington b 1849.Children born in Newton Co, TX - Benjamin Franklin b 1851, Permelia b 1853, Ballard b 1856, William E Demps b 1857, Amanda Harrett b 1861 and Mary Eliza b 1862.
Joseph John Henry Pearson Leonard moved to Anacoco, Vernon Par, LA.Mary Eliza married Isaac Sanders and lived in Provencal, Natchitoches Par, LA. Other children stayed in Texas.

We would like to know where in MS the family lived or anything about George & Susan's parents. We have looked on Death Cert. but they just list MS.This information came from family Bible and census records.
