    1. Alexander 'Alick' 'Alex' L. Smith married Margaret Unknown
    2. I am working on one of my SMITH lines and would love to hear from someone who has info on them or is related to them. Willing to share what I have and hoping you have more. Please take what I have as a starting point and prove to yourself and it's true. I have been researching for a long time and still find corrections along the way. Alexander 'Alick' 'Alex' L. Smith, b. abt 1828, Claiborne County, Tennessee. He is listed on the 1830 Census of Claiborne Co, TN, living with his parents, Elmus and Rhoda Maddy Smith. But by the 1840 census, he is living with his parents again but this time in Marion Co, TN. He stays with his parents for the next 10 yrs and is listed with them in the 1850 census of Marion Co, TN, Scalling District of that area. His family were Meth faith and his father a farmer.At this time he was abt 22 yrs of age and had not married. He most likely was helping out on the farm even tho the census doesn't list him as farm laborer like it does for his brother. Late 1850 to 1851, Alexander married a woman named Margaret Unknown (?). I'm not sure where they married, either Marion or Warren Co, TN, but they are listed in the 1860 census of Warren Co, TN. His father, Elmus Smith died February 04, 1860 and I believe his mother died before this. Their graves have not been found yet but I was told there is a strong poss that they could be in Marion of Warren Co, TN. I have cheked out the Marion Co, TN cemeteries and have not found them but there is a SMITH cemetery in Warren Co, TN that I am getting ready to go visit. Maybe they are there. They continued to live in Warren County, McMinnville area. They are listed as married in the 1870 census as well as the 1880 census. The names of the children were: James L. Smith, is in De Kalb Co, TN in 1880 Elizabeth Smith Leander Smith John Smith Mary Smith Thurman Smith Does anyone know who there SMITH's are or where they went after 1880? Helen
