    1. Re: SMITH, William Hall "Corn Cob" from Mississippi
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VJIBAEB/28453.1.1 Message Board Post: Wow, Debbie, thank you so much. I will search out the sites you gave me. Plan to go to Blytheville, hopefully next week, and see if I can find an obit on W. Leon Smith, who died in 1958 (I think, doing this off top of head). Really interested in finding all I can about Carlton and wife Ina. Maybe something will come up on the links you gave me. Thank you again and again.

Surnames: smith, weathers Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/VJIBAEB/28453.1 Message Board Post: Not my Smiths, but here is what I found. Apparently his nickname was not "Corn Cob", but rather "Corn Club", because he organized Corn Clubs. Here is are some links explaining his work with these clubs and 4-H. http://msucares.com/news/releases/02/020422_4h.html http://www.nae4ha.org/hof/mississippi.pdf Francis was his son, not his daughter. Listed as Francis B. in the 1910 census. The B may stand for Bethal, which is what I believe the census taker was probably trying to spell in 1930. That's just a guess mind you.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VJIBAEB/28453 Message Board Post: Seeking information on a William Hall "Corn Cob" Smith, from Mississippi, who was considered to be to be one of the founders of 4-H. His wife was Emma, and he had children, Carlton Grady, born March 1891, Mary Odell born Jan 1894, and William Leon born 1896, daughter Francis I., born about 1905, children all born in Mississippi. I found him on 1930 census as an Underwriter for a Life insurance Co, with a son whose name I couldn't read, looked like Belh AB, was 25 and an automobile salesman. William Leon and Carlton both ended up in Blytheville, Mississippi County, Arkansas, where Carlton is found married to an Ina D. Ina D. was daughter of Dempsey M. and Mattie Sanders. She was born about March 1887. Their son, Carlton Jr. died Dec 18, 1948 in Blytheville, leaving wife Sunshine Adams. If anyone can help with this family, I sure would appreciate it. Thanks so much.
