Original data from Behling-McLeester who also supplied transcript ofbaptism record - Gloria Dei church, Philadelphia, Film #511805 FHC:baptism 4 March 1848, Amelia Jane, daughter of Robert & SophiaMcLeester, born 29 Nov 1847. Behling also notes the records of thePublic Ledger newspaper, Philadelphia, Marriage Index entry:McLeester, Amelia J., 26 Oct 1865.
Behling-McLeester also found the family in the 1880 census.
Jansohn supplied the following:
1881 City Directory, Philadelphia, PA Researched April 11, 2002, FHC,Largo, FL
Kelter, John H. printer, 721 Pierce
Kelter, John J., clerk, 1336 Horstmann
Kyle, Wm. R. typecaster, 632 Sylvester
John Kelter and Wm. Kyle were husbands of my grandmother MayMcLeester’s half-sisters.
I believe Amelia Kyle was Robert McLeester’s daughter, but am not sureabout Mary Kelter whether she was a Lee or McLeester daughter.

Data from McLeester. SS Death index has birthday as 02/04/1884.August was named after his uncle, August H. Lang. This uncle procurredAugust a job at Wanamaker Department store in Philadelphia, PA whenAugust was around 14 or 15 years old.
Marion McLeester Johnson (my Godmother) wrote in an e-mail dated Oct26 1999
"Some corrections that I know of: I think, at point 51, that it notesmy father was named after his uncle, August Lang McLeester--this isDad's name but his uncle's name was August H. Lang. Dad was named forhis mother's brother. Incidentally, Dad hated this Germancombination of August Lang with his Scotch/Irish name of McLeester.He always wanted to name my brothers Alexander and Malcolm which heconsidered more appropriate with McLeester. Undoubtedly my mother wonthat discussion. Another point about August H. Lang is that I'veheard from someone, possibly Mary Merritt Lang who was hisdaughter-in-law, that he attended the University of Heidelberg.Haven't been able to check that out."
Behling supplied baptism data. Present at the baptism were hisparents, Charles A. and Annie. Sponsor - Mrs. Alex McLeester.Clergyman, Snyder B. Symes.
Apparently August made a trip to Europe as I found a ship's passengerrecord as follows -
August L. McLeester, a US citizen, arrived June 13, 1910 on the ship,Lapland, which departed Antwerp, Belgium.
