In talking with my Grandmother, she tells me that Leacock is a very uncommon name. Chances are we are more closely related than you might expect. My line goes back to my 4th great grandfather, Thomas Leacock of Ireland.
The line...
Thomas Leacock, had son John Leacock. John married Catherine Morrow 8/30/1853. They had a son Thomas who migrated to New York and married Alesha Alderdice (also of Ireland) on 4/16/1886. They had at least one son, Thomas Henry, b. 8/7/1890. Thomas married Jesse Hummer and they moved to New Jersey. They lived in North Plainsfield where they had 6 children. my Grandmother, Jean, Thomas Henry Jr., Louise, Emily, Ruth, and Arline. Anything familiar, please right.
