My gr-gr-gr-grandmother was Elisabeth Leonard (nee: Urban.date of birth unknown, but probably about 1830 in Germany.She died in 1855, possibly in childbirth.I have never been able to locate her place of burial, but suspect she may have been buried on the family homestead in the Rhine Township of Sheboygan County, Wisconsin (Section 9), since few hurches or cemeteries had been established at that time.
George Leonard purchased his farm (40 acres) from George and Maria Urban, 28 Jan. 1856.Mary Menne (possibly nee: Urban) purchased the adjacent farm (40 acres) from George and Maria Urban also on 28 Jan. 1856.John Urban purchased a 40 acre farm adjacent to George Urban on 21 Dec. 1853.George Urban purchased his 80 acre farm on 4 May 1853, which he split and sold to George Leonard and Mary Menne for $300 each.The parcel Mary Menne purchased is listed in 1889 as being owned by Peter Menne.
