I'm looking for the family of Rhoda NICHOLS SMITH, b. 1841 in Marshall Co. She married P.A. (Pleasant Ayler) Smith 22 July 1866 in Marshall Co. P.A. was born in Cherokee Co. 22 Jan. 1842. I know they lived in Pisgah, Jackson Co. in early 1900s but am not sure where they were between their marriage in Marshall 1866 and 1900. Rhoda's parents were Charles Nichols born in Marshall Co. and Lottie (Charlotte) TUCKER born in TN. Her siblings were Nancy, Polly, Adeline, Clayborn, Maudia, Robert, Phil and Simeon. Her grandfather is believed to be Simeon Nichols and her grandmother is believed to be a COOPER, but we're not sure of the first name. Rhoda was rumored to be a full blooded Cherokee Indian although her Miller application was denied due to lack of evidence. The children of Rhoda and P.A. were Jack (Andrew Jackson), Bettie, Henry, Huse, and George SMITH. P.A. served as a Pvt. in 48th AL. Infantry Co. D and was captured in Gettysburg. Have not been able to find P.A. SMITH'S parents, Lottie TUCKER'S family, or the COOPER connection. Would appreciate any info.
