* Emilie Ponge (b. 1833)
Leon died around 1926 in Switzerland. He is listed as the contact for an Exclusive Brethren (EB) assembly in an 1879 directory in [[Rail Road Flats Flat EB Hall, CA|Rail Road FlatsFlat, California]]. He and his family emigrated there in 1873. It is assumed he was introduced to the Brethren while in France, as Darby made travels there, as well as in Switzerland where Leon died. His wife Mary was born in 1845 in France.
In 1880, the town of Rail Road Flats was decimated by black fever, but he must have survived, as in 1900 he was living with his wife in Mokelumne, in the same county of Calaveras, in California.
