Petillo Addison Leatherwood was the son of Alexander Marion and Julia Ann Leatherwood. After his family moved to Texas, he returned to Alabama to marry Mary Eliza Jones. Her widowed mother, Martha Ann Hanna Jones, was so upset over the break-up of the family that the young man brought her, her two sons, and her daughter along.
The family settled on rented land in Bastrop County, Texas, where their son Petillo Emmett was born in 1873. Petillo Addison died when his only child was a few months old. The family moved to Lampasas,Texas, to be near the Leatherwood family. P.E. never knew where his father was buried. The family accidentally stumbled on the burial site in Manor Cemetery after his death at the age of 96.
