Both are children of Martha Ann 'Anna' Leake. Jabez, however, is also Asa's half brother, born of his father's relationship with Martha after the death of Asa's mother. It appears Asa and Margaret took the boys in after the 1854 death of Asa's father. •.¸¸💙💙¸.••.¸¸💙💙¸.••.¸¸💙💙¸.• Disclaimer: All pertinent information I have included here can be verified by U.S. Federal Census Records for the family in conjunction with various public records, including any documents I may upload to this memorial. Though I can not prove with 100% certainty that this family's composition and relation status is as I display it to be, I can say that the circumstantial evidence weighs very heavily in favor of the accuracy of these stated familial connections. •.¸¸💙💙¸.••.¸¸💙💙¸.••.¸¸💙💙¸.•
