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 
    • Name and birth dates from West Virginia County Birth registers, film 808256, image 168, v1 p. 103.

      Image of a page of typed birth records gives informant to Bertha's birth as Mary Booher Bourquin, relation given as Sister. Bertha did have a sister Mary who married a Bourquin. But Mary was born in 1887 so the transcript must not be that of an original birth record but of a much later submission. No further details about the record source are given.

      Bertha's 1964 death certificate gives her father's name as Albert Leedom (an apparent error on her father's given name), informant J. C. Minnix, Bertha's son of Bridgeport WV. Widowed, residence at time of death given as Haywood, Harrison WV.
