Here Leota poses with John
DeWees and grandmother
Margaret Shepherd Howard


In these two separate 'Get 5 pics for a quarter' photos, Leota was always one to send photos to her siblings. She lived out her life with Clyde Thompson.	Leota Shepherd first married Joe Slone and they had no children. She then married John DeWees and they had three children but only Marion is surviving.

Leota DeWees and Clyde Thompson and Family. Whether Marion
DeWees is the boy to the left or the one in the back has not been
determined. We know Clyde brought four children to his
arrangement with Leota and that she had only one son that
lived, Marion, of her marriage with her late husband, John DeWees.
A daughter and a son both died while very young.

Leota holds an unidentified
baby in this photo.

Leota's son, Marion DeWees (with cane in hand), poses
here with Mabry's son, Charlie Shepherd. Pictured in the
background are Gary Ward (left), Nadene's (Whitaker)
husband, and Darlene's (Whitaker) husband,
Dean Stauffer.

One of the Howard twins, Dale, takes pause
from his chat with Marion DeWees,
Leota Shepherd DeWees's son, for a photo
op with his cousin from Ohio. Dale
and his family live in
Jacksonville, Florida.
