I have documentation that my gg-grandmother was very good friends with this branch of the family and we lost track of her in the late 1920's so we are wondering if she went with Callie to Muncie. Any information might help resolve this mystery. By the way, my gg-grandmothers name was Amanda (Hamilton) Smith she was married to George Smith and someone before him which would have been my gg-grandfather. Three of the childrens names she had with George were Sallie, Casto and Sam. > > Thanks! > > --Original Message----- > From: Jack Beaty<jdbeaty@comcast.net> > To: tnfentre<tnfentre@rootsweb.com>; tnpicket<tnpicket@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Fri, Apr 15, 2011 8:36 am > Subject: [TNFENTRE] Obit Callie R.
