My great great grandfather, Henry Smith, moved to DeKalb County in 1841 with his wife Jane Shainholz Smith. Jane died in 1853 leaving 6 small children, and Emeline E. Robinson (a young girl of 18) married Henry and then subsequently bore six more children. Henry was presumably a prominant citizen of DeKalb Co., and his farm "Lovely Dale" is portrayed in the DeKalb Co. Atlas. The virtues of Emeline are noted in the genealogy of the Smith family by John Martin Smith (a descendent of Henry and Jane), but yet I can find little information on Emeline. She married in 1853, and presumably was 18, and Henry is buried alone at Eddy Cemetary (Jane is at Hamilton Cemetary). I know nothing about where Emeline was born, nor where and when she died. I have found some information on an Emeline Smith, but the death record that I found said that her father was Sam Till (or Yill), and with being married at 18, this does not sound like the right person. I know that Emeline and Henry had one other son that lived to maturity (other than my great grandfather) and this was Owen Elba Smith. I believe that he married a Hattie Workman and had 2 daughters, but I know nothing more of this line. Does anyone have information on any of these folks? Any help would be appreciated!
