My gf was William Lewis Smith 12/10/1861 died 14 Feb 1940, buried at Rheatown cemetery along with his wife Lucindia Moyers Dotson Smith who died in June, 1908. William married Lucinda in July 1892.

Died in 1880 and is buried in Springfield cemetery. PM's wife was Sarah Kelsey and she died in 1876. Thats is all the info I can come up with, many dead ends.

I have a copy of their marriage license and they were married april 1 1837. If the Ezekiel Low of the 1850 census was 26 years old. That would make him being born 1824. If that is correct then he would have been 13 years in 1837. Pretty young to get married. I'm still working on it. Who was your grandfather?
