Hi John, 

You are a descendant of the: Lewis & Leabo families. Then I just have to ask
 just in case you may know 
Would you happened to know where: Ruth McCubbins Leabo's Father:  James
McCubbins is buried? 
He died: Sept. 6, 1877 in North Salem, Marion Co., Oregon. 
He is my g-g-g-grandfather. His second wife was: Barbara Allen McCubbins and
one of there daughters was:
Ruth McCubbins / married: Isaac "Ike" Leabo. 
I just received a letter back today from City of Salem Public Library and
they can't find an Obit. or anything on my James McCubbins. 

Thanks!   Nancy L. Adams

Isaac "Ike" LEABO and Ruth MCCUBBINS (d/o Barbara ALLEN and James MCCUBBINS
b. Oregon 1854)
