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!

      Death record in Washington County VA Deaths:
      C. Ballard Crowell, W, M, age 17, died Oct 1860, born Washington Co, son of Joseph and Mary Crowell.

      A second source, a US Federal Census Mortality Schedule, states that Chester B. Crowell, age 16, born in VA, died of consumption in Nov 1859 after a duration of 30 days. The record is titled "Persons who died during the Year ending 1st June, 1860 in the Western District, County of Washington, State of Virginia". The entry is clearly written by enumerator A. G. Thompson, Ass't Marshal.

      Because I have an image of this official record I am using this death information in our database. I still hope to find the record cited and transcribed in the Washington County VA Deaths source.
