My Robert Leishman was my great grandfather. He was born March 25, 1865 in San Francisco, CA. He married Agnes Lafayette (b. c. 1860 in Waterbury, CT). He died March 18, 1936 in Schenectady, NY. (I have a picture of him from the 1920s.)
Robert and Agnes only had two children. Their first daughter, Margaret, died at a very young age. Their second daughter, Jessie, was my grandmother.
Robert's father was John Leishman. The only thing I know of him at present is that he and his wife, Margaret MacDay came over to CA from Scotland. I've been unsuccessful in researching San Francisco records and finding my Leishman family.
