Hello Listers, My gg grandfather, George Preston SMITH and wife, Lucy were on the 1880 Barren Co., KY (Tracy area) census living next to daughter and son in law, Eliza Jane and Richard Scarberry. George died in 1886 and I assume buried in the Tracy area. In 1890 my gg grandmother, Lucy K. Narramore SMITH died near Liletown, Green Co., KY living with her dau, Eliza Jane and son in law, Richard. Must have moved sometime between 1880 and 1890 to Green Co., KY I can't find any record of their deaths in Barren or Green Co., KY . My question/s : Is there any record of deaths then in a local newspaper for county deaths and if Lucy died after George in next county over, would her body be taken back to where her husband George was buried ??? Not sure if it was the custom to try and bury spouses together even if the deaths took place in another area of the state. Perhaps a church record would have some record of their passing, but have not found one yet. No record of George and Lucy in this 10 years time frame since they were not landowners. Any help would be greatly appreciated...........one of those brick walls that I can't seem to break down on my SMITH line. Thanks, Charlene Smith Lewis
