William married Katharine Macintyre (1879-1952), the daughter of prominent Presbyterian missionaries in Newchwang (Niuzhuang), close to the trade port of Yingkou, in 1906. Their three children were all born in Northern China and, along with the extended Macintyre family, they became an important part of the expatriate society and missionary community. William Leitch's work took him all over Northern China where he succeeded in many challenges including, after protracted negotiations, passing the railway line through the Great Wall near Shanhaiguan. The family endured much unrest including the Boxer Rebellion of 1905, long periods under Japanese rule combined with the civil war between Chinese Communists and Nationalists and, in 1931, an explosion on the railway track at Mukden (Shenyang) which led to a full Japanese invasion of North-East China. Over the years, as part of an affluent society, the family decorated their houses in Tientsin (Tianjin) and Shanhaiguan with Chinese works of art. They later returned to Edinburgh taking up residence in Gordon Terrace, furnishing the house with many treasured items sent home on the long sea voyage, including fifty large trunks of Chinese artifacts. Katharine Leitch remained a philanthropist and, along with the family that remained in China, focused on improving the quality of life of neglected and abandoned Chinese children. Whilst some of the items here are from her private collection, it is thought smaller items were brought back to generate funds for the orphanages the family privately funded.
