James (1811-1876) and Lucy Cushman (1812-1872) Smith lived in West Branch. The following Lee area families are connected to this Smith family: REIGLER,BUTTON, WINDELSPECHT, MORAT, OLCOTT, GRISWELL/GRISWOLD, CUSHMAN, GILLETTE, EVANS. I have been unable to determine who the father of James Smith was. James' mother was Abagail (maiden name unknown) born between 1780 and 1790 . She married Jared Olcott after her first husband died. Abagail and Mr. Smith had the following known children: Norman Smith (1806-1865), Ephraim B. (1807-after 1860) and James.
