Life

Leona Treece was born in Alabama in 1904, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no day, place or source for her birth and records no parents for her.1 On 31 December 1923 she married James Roy Webb, a son of James Pleasant Webb of Birmingham, in Jefferson County.2 The tree names one child, Irene Elba Webb (1927–2006), whose marriage record of September 1945 names her mother as Leona Treece, the index spelling her "Leana Truce" in one entry.3 The tree places Leona at Sylacauga, Talladega County, Alabama, in 1930, without a source.4 The census of 1940 listed Leona Webb in her husband's household in the twenty-second ward of Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan.5 On 19 November 1946 she and James Roy Webb married a second time in Jefferson County, the bride again under her maiden name.6 Inference The second ceremony suggests that the first marriage had ended in divorce, but no divorce record is in hand.6 The census of 8 April 1950 found Leona Webb with her husband in Birmingham.7 She died at Homewood, Jefferson County, on 11 August 1967, and was buried at Birmingham; the Alabama death index for her names her husband, James Roy Webb, and Find a Grave indexes her as Leona Treece Webb.8
