Leonard owned one slave in the year 1790, and is the only one of the Killian of this line who owned a slave. In 1790 his household consisted of himself, his wife, Margaret, a son, and the slave. Leonard seems to have been a man of considerable means, since he had a slave and has a stone erected at his grave in the cemetery at old St.Paul's Church.
