I am trying to discover the children born to Leonard Deming (1787-1853) and Ruth Case (abt 1788-1823). This couple lived in Middlebury, Addison County, Vermont in 1820 (two males to 10, one male 26-45, two females to 10, two females 16-26, and one female 26-45).
I found in "History of the Town of Monkton, Chapter 26, page 513," the following information: "Ira Ladd came from Pittsford, (Rutland County), Vt., in 1805, and opened a general store at Barnumtown, (Addison County), and was many years a justice of the peace. Leonard Deming, father of Mrs. Ladd, was a native of Addison County, and in early life a blacksmith. He was afterward the author of Deming's 'Vermont Officers and a Collection of Legal Cases Entitled Remarkable Events.'"
IF Leonard Deming's daughter was married to this Ira Ladd, she would have had to have been born after 1811. However, the wife of Ira Ladd was Polly Smith, and she was born about 1785 in Vermont. Was Leonard Deming somehow related to Polly Smith, and if so how?
