Bob Thought this might help. George changed the spelling of Smelser to "Smelcer" and thus the remainder of his descendants carry the same. LDS Ancestral File (1LHW-46G) The Smelcer/Cash Family Home Page (FTW) by Bruce and Janet Smelcer, Knoxville, Tn, 1, Descendants of Adam Smelcer Adam Smelcer was born 1760 in York County, PA and died in 1822 in Greene county, TN. He married Mary Kretzinger February 28, 1797 in Rockingham County, Pa. 7 July 1845 Greene County Court Records of the Last Will and Testament of George Smelcer Before reveiwing this file, the siblings of George Smelser was not known. Viewing this file at the Rappahannock Regional Headquarters Library at Fredericksburg, Va confirmed the siblings. No other information is known at this time. Patti > Someone recently submitted a post on Smelser family from Greene County, TN. Somehow I accidentally erased the message before I read it. My wife's gg grandmother is Susannah Smelcer Guin that married Patrick M. Guin in Sept. 1850. I haven't researched that family so I was very interested in the post. I believe Susannah's father is Joseph Smelser. There seems to be 2 spellings of Smelcer/Smelser and I don't know if they are two different families. I know the spelling of Guin has about 6 different spellings and they are all of the same family. Please get back with me on the Smelsers. > > Bob in Oregon [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
