I cannot help you with the mystery of the children but go to familysearch.org and look at the Illinois deaths. There is an extraction for the death of a John Smart who may be your guy. He died 27 April 1918 in LaGrange IL. He was born in England on 21 Dec 1867 and his parents are John Smart and Elizabeth Chapman. I believe this is the same person as in the 1910 census of Lyons, IL. I would definatly order the film from your FHC from which this extract is based. Or order the death record from Cook Co. IL. Also on familysearch.org is an extract of Florence's birth record in 1896 and an unnamed child of John and Daisy in 1896 There is Arly in 1897 These says that Daisy's last name is Young. I cannot answer your mystery of the wherabouts of Thomas and Harry in 1910 except to say the enumerator may have forgotten to include them or perhaps they were adopted after 1910. The social security death index says that Harry died in 1969 in Cook co. Ill. Perhaps you could send for his death certificate or his social security application to find out for sure if he is the son of John and Daisy I am not related to this family and only took up your challenge so I have no further information.
