of John May essays
Leonard May, son of Johann Nickel Meÿ, was born in
Niederhausen an der Nahe in the Rheinland Palatinate in 1719
and died before April 1777. When his brother, Daniel, wrote a
will in April 1777 in Berkeley County, Virginia, he referred
to Leonard's son Daniel as "the lawfully begotten Heir
of the Body of my brother Leonard May." Leonard probably
had been residing in nearby Loudoun County, Virginia at the time
of his death.
