    ALSO I saw that you are working on Leavells from Virginia. You may have this information already but I just moved to Fredericksburg, Virginia and I live in Spotsylvania County in a 600 home development called Fox Point. The area was previously a farm and the owner was a Leavell. There is a family cemetery located within our housing project. It is small - the size of lot. I went over today and copied the headstones in this graveyard.
