Lynn, you can learn all about Marvin T. and Mattie Leatherman by reading A PLACE FOR JOE by Elizabeth Leland---- Down Home Press, PO Box 4126, Asheboro, NC 27204. The book is factual but the Hallmark Hall of Fame movie based on the lives of Joe Hill and Marvin T. & Mattie Leatherman and their daughter Marguerite is not factual to my interpertation. Linda Hoyle descendant of Noah and Flora Lail Leatherman. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, July 29, 2000 9:24 PM Subject: [CATAWBA-WEST] Seeking descendants of LEATHERMANS: Frank J. and Parthenia Wesson Leatherman > Looking for descendants of Frank J. and Parthenia Wesson Leatherman. > Their children: > > Adolphus Pressley, b1883; m.
