John, Try finding John Smith! I do have a middle initial - C - but that has certainly been of little help. If his daughter (my grandmother) hadn't been born in Kewanee, I could never prove that he had even visited there (and maybe that's what it was - just a stopover on their way to Minnesota).

Aren't these Smiths almost impossible to find anything on? Best Luck in your search, John S.
