General Notes: Husband - James B. Leech
He was reared on the farm, and always was engaged in agricultural pursuits. For the many years, except for a part of the years 1888 and 1889, which he spent in Beaver Falls, he resided near the old home place, where he and his wife owned a tract of twenty acres. When the Civil War was in progress, he first enlisted under Captain Shaw, in Company A, One Hundred and Thirty-Fourth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, and served nine months, being discharged at Harrisburg. He then re-enlisted at New Castle, as a member of Company I, Sixth Regiment, Heavy Artillery (afterward Two Hundred and Twelfth Infantry), of which William McCandless was captain. He served until the close of the war, and during his service participated in many important engagements, among them Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville. He was discharged at Pittsburgh, and returned to his home in Lawrence County.
H was a member of Wampum Post, G. A. R. In politics, he was unswerving in support of Republican principles. In religious faith and fellowship, he was a Presbyterian.
