| Notes |
- Named in her father's will written 1 May 1737. Ruth died before 1786 when John's son by his second wife, Mary Hayhurst, was born.
Henry Tomlinson's Book of Records
1 mo 27 1785 - Ruth Leedom wife of John Leedom.
Byberry MM records give the same date for death and burial in two records
Ruth Ledam the wife of John Ledam died ye 27th day of ye 1st month in the year of our Lord 1785
Ruth Ledam wife of John Ledam ('died' is stricken) Interred the 27th day of the 1st month in the year of our Lord 1785.
New Garden MM death records
1785, 1 mo 27 - Ruth Leedom wife of John Leedom
Middletown MM records give the burial of Ruth Leedom in the 3rd Row, no 10 in a row-by-row list of burials titled 'Record of Middletown Friends Grave Yard at Langhorne', none of which have any dates. It appears that the Byberry records give her date of burial but that she is actually buried at Middletown.
