This Catherine is my ancestor, an aunt. Her parents were John Smith and Rebecca Thomas. Is there anyone out there on this list interested in her family. I would like to hear from you. John Smith is found in 1850 in Alabama. In 1870 the family is in Marion County; John and Rebecca are buried at Red Hill Cemetery in Whitwell. I would give anything to firmly know who his parents are and where they were from. wanda casker Subject: [TNMARION] LAST WILL AND TESTMENT OF CATHERINE SMITH > This one is typed and not in her own handwriting. > > LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF CATHERINE SMITH > I, Catherine Smith, of Marion County, Tennessee, do make and publish this my > Last Will and Testament; hereby revoking all other Wills by me at any time > made. > > FIRST-I direct that all my just debts be paid out of my estate, by my > executor. > > SECOND-I give, devise, will and bequeath, unto my sister, Mary Smith and my > two brothers, L.
