Notes


Her parents separated (?) when she was quite young and she lived with and was raised by her uncle, John Holland, in Marshall County, Kentucky. Taken from "The Story of Great Grandmother Leech." Elizabeth Haydock Leech was born in Smithland, Kentucky, September 26, 1833. Her mother, Harriet Conway, was of Irish descent, her father, Gideon Haydock, was a Quaker whose parents had come to America to escape religious persecution in England... Gideon Haydock died before his five children, Elizabeth, Joe, Gus, Maria (Buntie) and Clara were grown. At about the same time a brother of Gideon's and his wife died leaving five children. Harriet Haydock took these children into her home, and the ten children were reared as brothers and sisters. She was a frail woman, delicately reared with only a farm for a livelihood, and a farm in pioneer Kentucky was a big proposition for any woman with ten small children. But her children were clothed, fed, andeducated probably better than the average children in a pioneer country... Harriet Haydock spent the last years of her life with her daughters, and lies at rest in the Lorimer cemetery. *********************************************************************
