Misc. Notes
Daughter of Cyle Seburn & Mary Emma (Scott) Leonard. Wife of Thomas W Hunt, George Henry Dermus, William Mitchell, James Thomas Avant. Mother of Olive "Ollie" Mitchell-Williams.
Seburn murdered his second wife, Virginia Egger-Neely-Leonard and her small son (unknown Neely) before killing himself. The family's spelling of the last name changed from "Leonard" to "Lenard" after that. We feel it was to distance themselves from the horrible tragedy.
