    1. Re: [TNMARION] Help with surnames Smith and Martin******JIM*****
    2. Linda I appreciate this so much, I have been looking in the census for 2 years..my block was that all I had on Mandy was she married Thomas Martin. The name Smith I recently found when I got a copy of an obit on Gladys Allison..said her mother was Mandy Smith Martin...I then started looking at Smiths..but there is so many in the area and I never knew Mandy had a brother named Andy. I have a picture I just got last week of Mandy..or so I was told..standing with her grandson Charlie Powers..who was my uncle. She looked very old and very small in size in the picture.The picture came from Evelyn , Charlie's daughter who had just gotten it and she lived her whole life in Pittsburgh but never had seen a picture of her G-grandmother until her fathers funeral last year. The family apparently did not stay close..I have a few questions if you don't mind. On the census it shows a Violet Martin..I am assuming this is a daughter of Mandy and Toms...do you know anything of her? I have looked every where I know to look for her , but only see her the one time in the census report. I am planning a trip late April for Tenn. I would like to visit the grave sites of the family...are the graves marked do you know by any chance? I also cannot find anything on Ernest.. I have looked under the name Turner and Martin thinking he changed his name after Tom and Mandy married. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the help you have given me.You have really given me a lot to look at...and I appreciate the kindness!!! deb In a message dated 4/2/2008 11:50:07 P.M.
