Scott is correct.Both John and his wife Estelle were married twice.Leona is the 3rd wife of John.
Robert Edward, I believe is the Edward listed in the census.He was born in Dec 1886 Alabama and I believe he died 15 Dec 1941 Cottage Hill, Mobile County, Alabama, at the age of 59 years and 9 days. His wife, if this is him, is named as Geneveive Revere, his father as John Robert Lee.He was buried in Mobile, Mobile Co, Alabama on 18 Dec 1941.Problem is, it doesn't list his mother.
There is a Mary Denton born on 4 July 1891 in Alabama whose father is listed as John R Lee and mother as Mollie Yeager.She was married to W J Denton and lived in Texas.This may be Katie?Katie is listed as being born in July 1891.
There is an Ephraim Lee with wife Jane who has a son John Lee who may be your John.I cannot, however, find any definite proof of it.Have you attempted to get a copy of John's death certificate?You might also try the cemetery records where he is buried. (If you have not seen it, you can see John's, Frank's and Leona's gravestones at www.findagrave.com as well as Frank's wife.She is listed as Emma Lee Bailey Woolfolk. The file includes both Frank and Emma's obits)
I do find it intersting that the Yeagers apparently had a tie to a Lee family.Leona lived with her uncle, Mark Yeager before her marriage to John.In the same household is a Walter Lee who is listed as the nephew of Mark.
The FHL is the Family History Library website, which you have already used.If I find more, will let you know.
