T. Leatherman departed this life July th 19, 1895 RECORD OF THE LIFE OF PETER RANDOLPH LEATHERMAN (Now in the possession of Mrs. Bessie Hill, 601 Kirby, Shreveport, La. Mrs. Hill does not know what the relationship is, if any, between her grandfather, Thomas Leatherman of Claiborne Parish, La., and Peter Leatherman of Miss.) My father, P. R. Leatherman, was born in Wilkinson Co., Miss. He married Miss Francis Ann Dunckley on her 19th birthday in April or May. He was five years older than she. In 1853, September 24, I, Mary-Emily Leatherman, was born. In 1859, my sister Kate was born. After marrying, Father lived with Grandpa Leatherman two years, and taught the neighborhood school on Percy's Creek. Then he taught my grandpa Dunckley's girls and boys until 1860. Then he bought his father's old home in the Donegal neighborhood in Wilkinson County, Miss. We lived there two years, and he went to the war, fought to the close in the Virginia army, under Lee. After the war, he sold his home, and bought Grandpa Dunckley's home, just 2 1/2 miles from Woodville. We lived there until after I was married on January 15, 1874 to George Chestley Netterville. Two years later, when he was about 45 years old, father went to Tensas Parish, La. with my mother and sister, to manage a plantation for Mr. Beaty O'Kelley, who had rented two plantations, and was managing one himself. Later, father sold the Dunckley place to Mr. O'Kelley and moved to the Black River, La. plantation bought by Great Grandfather, John King, and inherited by Grandma Dunckley and her niece Emily King, who later on married Cousin Frank M. Leatherman. My grandmother had died, and mother had inherited her part of that property. In the meantime, my sister had married W. K. Collins in Louisiana. He was a Mississippi boy from Franklin County adjoining Wilkinson County. Father lived on the property mother inherited only a few years, as they feared the overflow. He was fortunate enough to sell before that dreadful flood when the government had to feed the people over there. He took that money and bought him a home in Lincoln County, Miss. near Brookhaven, tried truck farming, but it cost so much to get it to market that he gave it up. He taught school at Utitca then went to Franklin County, Miss., bought a home there in the out-skirts oi a little railroad town, and taught school there and in Wilkinson county until about two years before he died, when he sold his home and went to our home, back in Wilkinson County, and there died of a cancer on his face. All of this time his friends and relatives knew where he was, so I cannot imagine what you meant by asking me if my father was the Peter Leatherman who disappeared from Mississippi. I never heard of any other Peter Leatherman, and I am a pretty old woman. There are a number of people in Wilkinson County who can swear to the statement. Mary L. Netterville.
