I am a descendant of Leroy V. Peeden and Lucy Branch. Leroy was born in Selma, N>C> and has long been deceased. They had a son named Lindbergh Peeden born Jan.31, 1928 who later went by the name of Leon Barker. There was some family scandal involve, therefore the Peeden family did not acknowledge Lindbergh as being the natural son of Leroy Peeden. However, he was. Would like more contact to find about the Peeden family. I understand the Peeden family had some connection with a steel mill in N.C. My father (Leon Barker) lives in Thomasville, N.C. I am helping him find out more family information. I live in Oregon and can be reached at
