For the clarification of others: 1st: Jesse L. McLeod/Maggie Josey 2nd: James E. McLeod/Dellah Ives 3rd: Jesse L. McLeod II/Eva Miller 4th: Dale Patricia McLeod/Unknown Leonard 1st: Jesse L. McLeod/Mary Rosa Ives 2nd: Donald Ross McLeod/Alice Hudson 3rd: My father 4th: Me Note that Maggie Josey was the 2nd cousin of Jesse L. McLeod I, her husband. His mother, Harriet Yates McLeod was the daughter of a Josey, the first cousin of Maggie's mother. Also note that Rosa Ives McLeod and Dellah Ives McLeod were first cousins, Rosa the child of Joseph Freeman Ives and Dellah the child of his brother, Charles J. Ives, both vetarans of the Civil War. Hope that clarifies it a bit for others who may be interested in this line.
