Eldest child of Henry and Winney Covington and lifelong farmer, LeRoy was 16 years old when his father died in wartime military service. He was in his thirties when he married Elizabeth Frey.

NOTE as to the location of the family's graves; info received from Jean Brown of Tenn. in 2008, added here in January 2018:

"According to the Robertson County TN Cemeteries book, Winnefred Covington is buried in the Covington Cemetery located in a pasture located on Pleasant Grove Road, Robertson County, TN. Unfortunately, the cemetery is not visible from the road, so I'm not sure what condition it is in. Haven't had a chance to get over there to climb the fence to get into the pasture. This cemetery is not the same cemetery where Winnie's son, Leroy Covington, is buried. Both cemeteries are located off the same road."
