1. | George LETHERLAND Notes:
The Litherland name took on many spellings in the Kentucky, Indiana,
Illinois area: Leatherland, Letherland, Litherland, Leitherland,
Latherland. Generally, the individuals were not literate neither reading
or writing. The resulting spelling in tax records or census reflected how
the the recorder heard
the name being pronounced. By the late 1800`S the spelling of
"Litherland"seems to have become the
accepted form for this particular family.
