Missouri. Some of that interested me since I am looking for Mae Smith Davis who lived in Stoddard County until 1920 when the Davis family moved to/near St. Louis. Mae Smith Davis (I do not know her husband's name) is the daughter of Joel Franklin Smith who lived in Stoddard Co. in the 1900s with either his first wife (Rachel Wilson Smith) or his second wife (Nancy Jane Nelson Smith). I am having difficulty nailing down any of them while they resided in Stoddard Co. Maybe some of this will be familiar to you and you can set me straight. I hope so.

I would look to the marriage licenses from that county. I am related to Davis and Smith. W.H. Smith was my great grandmother's(Sarah Jane Henson) Second husband. My grandmother Wilda Wright Davis was orphaned and was raised by unknowns and told her parents had died. Little did my grandmother know that her mother and father Sarah Jane Wright and William Wright were living 15 miles away. They raised the three sons and gave away their two daughters. Nellie Brinkman was my grand aunt. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mostodda/scmo.htm this site by Don Write has lots of great information about Stoddard and dexter Barbara Taylor Henderson -----Original Message----- From: mostodda-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:mostodda-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of gc-gateway@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, July 06, 2007 1:51 PM To: MOSTODDA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [STODDARD, MO] Wilson, Doc & Sara?
