DOB DOD per IGI files

Per Rootsweb research of William D. Collins: Lee is the s/o Josiah Paddock and Catherine Lake (born 7 July 1850) with 2 other brothers: Ethelbert Paddock (could Ethelbert be the Rev E. S. Paddock who married Lee and Mary Madge Straw?) and Clarence Paddock

"Here is my information, all of which came from cousin Russ Davisson's book The Davissons..Twelve Generations..1630-1992.:
" Mary Davisson (Daughter of Captain Josiah Davisson and granddaughter of Daniel (4), Josiah (3) Daniel (2 &1) was born 2 June 1811 in Virginia and died 16 March,1878 in Kansas; she married Elijah Paddock of Preble County, Ohio and settled about ten miles south of Indianapolis, Indiana.
The children of Mary and Elijah Paddock were:
1. Henry (7) Unmarried
2. A son,(7) Married but no Issue
3. Josiah (7) d. at Topeka KS; married Catherine, daughter of Phenis Lake (b. 7 July 1850); children:
1. Ethelbert (8)
2. Lee O. (8)
3. Clarence (8)
4. Levi D.; married Laura Duncan, div,; Laura's children:
1. W.E. (8)
2. Mary E. (8)
3. Burt (8)
I can't decipher from Russ's notation whether Levi divorced Laura Duncan, or whether the children came with a divorced Laura Duncan.
In any case it does appear that your Lee Paddock (1873-1940) and married c. 1906 to Mary Madge Straw could be the same Lee O. son of Josiah and Catherine Paddock. Your additional information that Lee had a brother known as "E.S." would fit with the sibling "Ethelbert" above.
Have you tracked or have any interest in additional information about the Davison/Davisson ancestors of Josiah and sons? Russ still has a few copies of his book available if you are interested.
Let me know if this information dovetails with yours,"
