Nicholas Leatherman

Notes:

...Susanna, daughter of Ludwig 2 . was born about 1755 or earlier. She married Nicholas Leatherman. Considerable information on this family and descendants is found in "All Leatherman Kin History" by Rev. John Leatherman and Annie Leatherman Candler (1940) from which the following is abstracted:
...Nicholas Leatherman was born and reared near Hagerstown and farmed first in Frederick County. He sold his land there on 28 Apr 1784 and on 10 Aug 1784 bought tracts of 185 and 331 acres on Patterson' Creek in Hampshire County, Virginia, now West Virginia. Lewis Roderick or Rotruck, his brotherin-law, also moved to Hampshire County, where Lewis stayed for nine years and then moved to Ohio. Nicholas Leatherman settled on a farm located between Burlington and Headsville in what is now Mineral County, formed out of Hampshire County in 1863. The history cited above states that Nicholas died in 1790 but this appears to be an error as Frederick County Deed Book L p 464 refers to Susanna wife of Nicholas Leatherman on 28 Nov 1798. Nicholas and Susanna were buried in a family plot on the farm, owned later by a Biser family.

Family/Spouse: Susannah Rhoderick. Susannah was born about 1746 in United States; died about 3 Sep 1811 in Mineral County, West Virginia, United States; was buried about Sep 1811 in Mineral County, West Virginia, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
