General Notes: Husband - Samuel Smith
Farming was his principal occupation throughout life, and he was very successful, being able to give a farm to each of his sons. His early married life was passed on a place adjoining his father's home property, and the house which he occupied still [1919] remains there, but the barn was burned some time ago. This farm is now owned by William Allen. For ten years Mr. Smith carried on butchering in connection with farming, selling meat to the railroad builders, marketed principally at Scrubgrass. He slaughtered an average of a head of stock a day. In time he acquired the ownership of the old home place, which his father had given to his brother William, who built the barn which still stands thereon. William Smith, however, sold the property to a Mr. Hovis and moved to Bully Hill, where he died. After fifteen or twenty years Samuel Smith purchased the farm, and at his death it passed into the possession of his son Millard F. Smith, who now owns and occupies it. He was one of the most active men of his time in that section, filling nearly all the township offices, and serving two or three terms as a justice of the peace. He was also a prominent member of the Church of God, with which his father was identified from the beginning, having been one of its founders. [CAB, 880]
Year of his death was 1879. [HVC 1890, 966] Date of his death was Aug 21. [HMC 1888, 1066] The cemetery book gives his date of death as Aug 26.
