Leonards Trace Ancestry A very unique and solemn occasion was witnessed recently at an old cemetery, located on the farm of the late John R. Herr east of New Lisbon. Captain Nathaniel Leonard, who served in the armed forces during the Revolutionary War, was buried here in 1824, 136 years ago. He was 75 at the time of his death. In 1914 the father of John S. Leonard of Indianapolis learned of his ancestor’s burial in this old cemetery. Recently the family became interested in having the body removed from the out-of-the way corner of the Herr farm to a public and better-kept cemetery. The excavation was done Saturday, Aug. 20 and the remains were carefully arranged and removed for reburial in the New Lisbon cemetery. The marker which was still legible was also taken to be placed at the new grave. Witnessing the exhumation were Mr. and Mrs. John S. Leonard, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Leonard and sons Robert and John, Mrs. Martha Iverson and son John Jefferson, members of the Leonard family and Rev. John Andrae, assistant minister of the Speedway Christian Church. In addition to those present were William Herr, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Herr; his children Phillip and Esther; Carolyn Herr, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Herr and Roy Doddridge of Connersville. The grave was opened on the Herr farm, and opened and closed in the New Lisbon Cemetery by Homer Huddleston, his son, Fred Huddleston and his grandson, David Woolard. After the body was removed to the New Lisbon Cemetery, Rev. John Andrae gave appropriate graveside rites for the old soldier. The procedure and service were impressive and will long be remembered by all who witnessed it.
