He was twice married, first to Susan Longanacre and secondly to Mrs. Anna (Ballengee) Nowland, of Summers county, who still survives, residing in Alderson. The death of Washington Burdett occurred in June, 1908.
     Leonie E. Burdett was one of a family of ten children, all of whom survive except him and all have married and have issue. He remained on the home farm until he was sixteen years of age and then became interested in the lumber business, in which he continued until the close of his life. For a number of years he was both dealer and manufacturer and a practical worker in lumber in Summers, Fayette, Clay, and Kanawha counties and was a successful business man. In 1901 he transferred his interests to Charleston where he started a planing mill and operated the same until his death. Since then his city interests have been looked after by his brother, Plummer W. Burdett, under the name of the Kanawha Planing Mill Company, the controlling interest being owned by Mrs. Burdett. In politics he was Republican but was never an aggressive politician. He was a member of the Baptist Church.
     Mr. Burdett was married to Miss Betty Withrow, of Summers county, who, at death, left two children, Bertha B., and J. Homer, both of whom were carefully educated by their father, the latter having the added advantage of military training, and both reside at home. Mr. Burdett was married secondly, on February 25, 1891, to Miss Zora E. Graham, who was born December 25, 1869, in Summers county and was reared an educated there. Her parents were Joseph U. and Sarah (Flint) Graham, and her grandparents were David and Sarah (Alderson) Graham. The grandmother died some thirty years since, but the venerable grandfather, now ninety years of age, still survives and lives with his son at Hinton, WV. Joseph U. Graham was a farmer and lumberman for many years but for the past decade has been a business man at Charleston and is manufacturer here of all kinds of boxes.
     To Mr. and Mrs. Burdett four children were born, namely: Clarence E., who was born December 22, 1891; Frank E., born September 1, 1893; Ashley G., born November 9, 1895; and Hugh, born January 11, 1903. Mrs. Burdett and family are members of the Baptist Church.
