    1. Re: [ILPIKE] Sarah Leggett
    2. fcruble, As I look at your recent posting, I can connect with some other names. Per my earlier e-mail George W. Washington LEGGETT was my Great Grandfather he was married to Jaley Alice Burbridge, they had 6 children: John Washington (my grandfather), Lillie, Bess, Louise, Edith and Logan. Edith and Logan both died as very young adolecents or adults, I still have post card referencing them in the early 1900's. Bess and Louise moved to Southern California and are buried in Hollywood in the Forrest Hills Cemetery, in a above ground crip. Your reference to Louisa Cannon as MOTHER, is my Great Great Grandmother, Louisa Marion Cannon, born in Benton, Alabama and married to John Washington LEGGETT born circa 1830 (unknown) and died for reasons unknown in 1856, Pike County, Illinois. The first John Washington and Louisa Marion Cannon are presumed buried in the HOLLIS Cemetery south of Nebo. David HOLLIS in the early 1800's was married to a Carolyn LEGGETT (connection unknown). which is where this cemetery is located. Louisa Marion LEGGETT Cannon, remarried after the first John Washington LEGGETT died to a David SCRANTON and had 9 more children. Thank you for your time and effort Gerald N. LEGGETT
