Sue, I never knew that Leonard was guardian to anyone. Leonard was born in Farmer City, Dewitt Co., IL, in 1878, and lived in Bloomington, Il, when my mother was born in 1910. They moved to Grand Rapids, MI, in about 1915, and later moved to Indianapolis, IN, in the early 1920's, where he died in 1950. I do not know the father of Richard Henry Webb, so have no idea if he is a descendant of the Raleigh/Boone Co., WV, Webbs. Thank you for responding .

Sorry, my message wasn't clear. Your Leonard Webb isn't my Leonard Webb, s/o Henry and Lear (Webb) Webb, of Peachtree, Raleigh Co, WV. Both Henry and Lear died in 1865 after Henry returned from the Civil War. Leonard was made guardian of the three remaining minor children (including my ggrandfather). Leonard died soon after that and his brother Austin Webb assumed the guardianship. I have Leonard's lineage backwards but not his descendants. I've never come upon another Leonard Webb, and the other names in your line are family names used in the Boone/Raleigh Co, WV Webb families. Thanks.
