Birth Year[edit]

To whoever keeps changing the birth year of Leatrice Joy from 1893 to 1896, pleasse list your sources. Every source listed on this page gives the year of birth as 1893.

Birth Year.[edit]

VERIFY YOUR SOURCE!!!!!!!!

Real name[edit]

I found her birth name in the state of Louisiana birth records as Leatrice Johanna Zeidler and in the 1900 United States Census she's listed as Johanna Zeidler. Not until the 1910 United States Census is she listed under the name of Leatrice J. Zeidler. I'm assuming she adopted the name "Joy" from either a nickname for her middle name or from her mother's middle name and not her own. Also I found her mother changed her own name from Mary to May when she moved to Los Angeles, California when her daughter had already become a big movie star.

I also found out that her grandfather on her father's side, Edward Joseph Zeidler, Sr., emigrated to New Orleans from Austria, while the parents of her grandmother on her father's side, Elisabeth Boyer, both emigrated to New Orleans from France. Her grandfather on her mother's side, John C. Crimen, emigrated to New Orleans from Germany and the parents of her grandmother on her mother's side, Mary Kennedy(later adopting her mother's maiden name of Trelford after her father left their family), both emigrated from Ireland. All of this I found in official US government records such as naturalization records, birth records, marriage records, divorce records, censuses, etc. Kmanblue (talk) 08:08, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
