Eleanor married a Mr. Hammill, and the four daughters of this union died unmarried; Agnes married Dr. Edward Leadbeater, and the eldest son of this union, at the earnest request of the poet, was christened Philip Leadbeater Freneau, his grandfather putting into his infant hands the ancestral Bible, which was the family treasure.
— from The Poems of Philip Freneau, Poet of the American Revolution. Volume 1 (of 3) by Philip Morin Freneau
