Event Notes Note (1) Birth date given in SSDI and WV Births Index as Sep 3 1894, with the latter identifying him as Nathan Goff Leggett, born in Ritchie County. But his WW I and WW II draft registrations show his birth date as Sep 11 1894, as does his military grave marker. Note (2) Obituary of wife gives marriage date as Jun 1 1921. But MR 10-248 shows it as Jun 10 1920, while Wes Cochran's "Doddridge County Marriages" has it as Jun 6 1920. Note (3) But 1900 Census identifies her as Mary E. Jones, born Nov 1893. Note (4) Husband's obituary in May 2001 was self-contradictory in stating that he was "survived by his wife of 52 years, Sally I. Leggett, whom he married July 29, 1947."
