I also am descended from Solomon Leonard
(born abt. 1610) and his son John Leonard, but through John's son Joseph, and Joseph's son David Leonard. You may be interested to know that Solomon Leonard's wife Sarah Chandler was the dhr. of Roger Chandler, who was married to Isabel Chilton, who was the eldest daughter of Mayflower passenger James Chilton (who died aboard the Mayflower in Provincetown Harbor in Dec. 1620). Although Isabel and Roger Chandler did not travel on the Mayflower, they came to New Eng. prior to 1633, when Roger is taxed in Duxbury (or Plymouth; I forget which). The name of John's wife was Sarah but her last name is not known. For confirmation of the above, see Mayflower Families Through Five Generations, Vol. 15. Happy genealogy hunting! Does anyone have any information to establish the parents of Solomon Leonard (born abt. 1610, possibly in Pontypool, Eng.)?
