  • Notes 
    • James Leonard's middle name was named after Dr. Leonard, the MD that saved him at birth. The story was that his mother, Jennie, had a history of difficult pregnancies. Her MD was very upset that she had gotten pregnant. at delivery, she went through much difficulty, and after delivering, the attention was on her, and her difficulties, with James' condition taking second place. Someone noticed that he had not taken a breath, and was in trouble. Dr. Leonard quickly revived him. The above account was given by James' wife, Agnes (Morck) Jeffrey.

      Visited Janet (Aunt Jess) Jeffrey noting that he came from North Tonawanda 1895 (see Janet Jeffrey Library Item 4 Page 15)
