I am looking for a Smithey Sasser from N.C. born 1816. She is not the daughter of Nancy Kirby & Henry Sasser but was living in Laurel Co., Ky. at the same time as they were. Henry & family and Smithey arrived in Laurel Co. around 1835. Henry & Nancy are from Johnston Co., N.C. I am trying to find proof that Smithey is related to them possibly a niece, etc. and/or that she is also from Johnston Co., N.C. There is also a Josiah Sasser mentioned briefly in the Laurel Co., Ky. records and he is the correct age to be Smithey's father. Could Josiah be related to Henry Sasser possible cousin, etc. Josiah had a daughter Isabella that married Kirby Thomas in 1843 in Laurel Co., Ky. Henry & Nancy Sasser had a dau. Martha and she married Joseph Bodkins, brother to my James Bodkins. Martha named her daughter Smithey. Smithey married James H. Bodkins in Knox Co., Ky. in 1838 (right next to Laurel Co.) and they lived close to Henry Sasser in 1840 Laurel Co, in 1850 they lived in Knox Co., Ky., in 1860 in Jessamine Co., Ky, in 1870 & 1880 they lived in Franklin Co., Ky. Both Smithey and James Bodkins died in 1888 in Franklin Co. Can anyone help me unravel Smithey Sasser's past prior to 1838 ??? Thanks for any and all help you can offer.....Patsy
