Montgomery County, Pennsylvania ; a history (Volume v.3) by Clifton Swenk Hunsicker page 494
HESTON R. LEIDY, the successful, up-to-date farmer, who has made of the old homestead farm inherited from his father, a model, modern agricultural plant, is also interested in pedigreed stock. Known throughout the locality as a most able and successful farmer and breeder, he is also known as a progressive, public-spirited citizen, and a much esteemed friend and associate. Heston R. Leidy was born in Franconia township, Montgomery county, May 15, 1894, son of Andrew and Ellen (Roming) Leidy, the former for forty years owner and cultivator of the homestead farm now owned by Heston R. Heston R. Leidy received his education in the public schools of his native district. Even before his school training was completed, he was, during spare time and vacations, his father's assistant, and when his formal school training was completed, he at once became associated with his father in the work of the farm. Under Mr. Leidy's vigorous and efficient management, the ninety-six acres of the homestead, which is a beautiful farm situated on the Elroy road, are under careful cultivation. Modern machinery and scientific methods of cultivation have produced splendid results, and in addition to the raising of crops, Mr. Leidy is an expert in stock raising. His stock is of the best, pedigreed and registered, and the animals are housed and cared for in the most modern and scientific way. Politically, Mr. Leidy gives his support to the Democratic party, and his religious affiliation is with the Reformed church.
At Souderton, Pennsylvania, September 23, 1916, Heston R. Leidy married Minnie Detwiller, daughter of Theodore and Mamie (Moyer**) Detwiller, and they are the parents of two children : Heston, Jr., born December 13, 1917; and Althea, born December 5, 1919.
