Surnames: Smith, McKinney Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/VJIBAEB/28028 Message Board Post: I'm trying to find out more about my paternal great-great grandfather's ancestry. Here's what I know: Charles Vinson Smith was born in Warren County, TN 17 Mar 1856. He died 2 Mar 1944 in Earlyville, TN. On 18 Mar 1880 in McMinnville, TN, he married Mary Elizabeth Gannon. Mary was born 3 Jun 1862 and died 24 May 1946 in TN. Charles Vinson Smith's mother was Annie McKinney b. 15 Jul 1819 in TN and died in 1912 in Warren County, TN. This is the extent of my knowledge about him. I'd love to know his father's name, his siblings, and go back as far as possible on both his father's and mother's sides of the family. Any assistance you could offer would be very much appreciated. You can contact me at zoni_tonya@yahoo.com
