We now have three genealogy files on this site: our main database which is a combined ‘Ives-Leedom’ tree, plus two additional working trees with so-far unconnected people I've found along the way, ‘Leedoms-unknown’ and ‘Netherlands-unknown’. All of the Search results will identify which tree contains the individual or place in question.

Different sources sometimes have conflicting information and there are undoubtedly a few typographical errors in here as well. Please feel free to send us any corrections to errors you may find in our files. Additions are always welcome too!

    Notes 
    • Samuel graduated from Jefferson Medical School in 1838, one year before his brother John, and moved to Ohio. - The Leedom Family

      Samuel's birth place is given, incorrectly, as 'England' in his son Robert's death certificate.

      A photo of his tombstone submitted by Robert Weller shows Samuel's death date and gives his age as 42 years, 11 mos and 27 days. He is buried in Cost Cemetery along with his wife, son Byron and Mabel, Byron's infant daughter.
