I am looking for information on my ggg-grandparents. Some research I have come across indicates they were married in St Clair county on 24 Dec 1846. Census records show Elizabeth, d/o Samuel Anderson and Sarah Stookey, was born in St Clair Co., Illinois and James in Tennessee. I am looking for any information on this family but have found many Leaches in the surrounding area and have not been able to identify them. Does anyone have any information on when James arrived in the St Clair area, when and where he married, and when he moved to Missouri. According to family records Elizabeth and three sons, Lyman, Sylvanus, and Augustus were born in Illinois also. Any information on occupations or land ownership would also be greatly appreciated. I also am looking for information on Elizabeth's father Samuel Anderson and his wife Sarah Stookey/Stuckey. Any help here is also greatrly appreciated. I will be glad to share whatever info I have on these families but most of it is unsubstantiated as I picked up most of it before I found the importance of keeping citations.

Where in MO did your Leach family end up? I've done a little work on a Leach family in Cape Girardeau County and Carter County, MO.
