Notes
!SOURCE: Scott Richard McLeod, smcleod@@landoflakes.com [The
following biographical narrative is based upon information gleaned from
interviews with grand-daughters Myrna Joy McLeod-Grimes and
Geraldine Esther McLeod-Houts, along with public records listed below.]
Esther Rogers was a very simple farm girl born and raised in the Dakota
Territory (later made the state North Dakota). Esther married Archibald
Alexander as a very young girl. Her father Richard attended the
ceremony. There are no other public records about Esther nor are there
any family records or memories from that time. After she divorced
Archibald, her widowed mother Mary moved into the home with her.
After Mary's death, Esther married Paul Cunningham. They lived in
Illinois on a ranch or farm they rented. They kept up a race horse called
Evil Eye. Esther was apparently very happy with her life with Paul. He
was a very kind and gentle man. He was also a high ranking Mason. When
ever they were in the twin cities, they stopped in to visit her children
and grandchildren. My father Tom, her grandson, recalls at least one
visit to Esther and Pauls farm. At that visit, a very young Tom McLeod
used the cream on Esther's porch to "paint" his fathers car. By the time
it was discovered, the cream had dried and his father Brenton had a very
difficult time removing it.
