Smith, born near Claylick, Licking Co. 23 Apr 1851, son of William Smith and Elizabeth Brown. James died 10 Feb 1927 and was last of family of 8 children who predeceased him. His obit does not list siblings names. His first wife was Sophia Geary, second wife Matilda Jones. Have been unable to find him or parents in Licking County. I have an old photo of a man labeled Cris Smith, possibly a brother. There may also be a Myers/Mires connection. Any help greatly appreciated.
