Della (Leonard) Caldwell was the daughter of Jefferson "Jeffie" and Millie (Barker) Leonard. She married Pete Joseph Caldwell - 03 Oct 1895 - Lincoln Co., Tennessee.
Her exact dates of birth and death are unknown, as is her exact grave location in Champ Cemetery. It has been suggested that she was born July 1877 and died in 1900... The month and year of birth are based on information from the 1900 Census records, but the 1880 Census discredits this by stating that she was 8 years old and born in 1872. Her second son, Nolan C. Caldwell, was born 25 Dec 1901 so this is proof that she was alive after 1900. It is my belief that she either died in December 1901 while giving birth to Nolan or soon thereafter. During this era, families were having children every year or two and no other children were born to Pete Joseph and Della (Leonard) Caldwell. She was definitely deceased by 1910 because her husband, Pete, stated his marital status to be "widowed" in that census and is residing with his brother and his family in Huntsville, Madison Co., Alabama.
