I have some information on Lepards in Groveland, Oakland County, Michigan.Some are buried in the cemetery in Ortonville, Michigan where I live.If this is the same Joseph and Christina Lepard (sometimes spelled Leopard), Joseph was first married to my grgrgrgrgrandparents (Abraham Bicksler & Elizabeth Frick) daughter Esther (maiden name Bicksler) and they had 4 children.This is the dates for these individuals:
Joseph Lepard born 1823 died 3-3-1904
Esther Bicksler Lepard born 1830 NY died 8-3-1865 (34y9m15days) their children were:
Henry Lepard b abt 1850
Abram A born 1853 died 3-24-1877 (24y9m15days)
Jacob b abt 1854
Elizabeth abt 1856
Esther died at 34 and Joseph remarried to Christina Schillinger born in 1836 died 10-30-1924
their children were:
Emma born 1871 died 1906
I also have
Frank J Lepard born 1870? died 1918 (think this was Joseph and Christina's son)
Mary C Lepard born 1871 died 2-12-1957 (Frank's wife?)
Frances M Lepard "dau" born 10-17-1910 died 8-4-1986 (the gravestone on this one says "dau)
These 3 are all buried next to each other
I also have
Sumner J Lepard born in 1880 died 12-17-1960 (son of Frank and Christina?)
Florence Lepard born 1881 died 12-17-1959
I also have another Lepard in my ancestory (actually maybe a few more)
As mention before my grgrgrgrgrandparents were Abraham Bicksler and Elizabeth Frick.Along with Esther (mentioned above) they had a son named Jacob.Jacob Bicksler born 1827 Erie County, NY died 1914 Groveland, MI married Eva Croup b 1825 NY died 1901 Groveland, MI.Her parents were Peter Phillip Croup born 1778 PA died 1862 Erie, NY and Mary Lepard born 1785 (not sure if in NY or PA?) died 1855 Clarence, NY.I have more information from here down, but as you can see they have the Croup name and Lepard in this branch.
If you have any more details on the above information, please let me know or let me know if you need any more I can help you out with.
Thanks, Penny
