Surnames: Smith, Cecil, Emerson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XiB.2ACI/1342 Message Board Post: This lady was my great grandmother and married my great grandfather, Samuel Hall Smith in Palestine, April 11, 1878. I have traced the Smith side and they moved to Mena, Arkansas sometime in the early 1880's after my grandfather, Ernest Reagan Smith, was born. I have tried to track her down as a Cecil, but would like to know who the Emerson is and/or was she an Emerson. She died in 1895 in Mena where I think she was originally from. My grandfather came back to Palestine in 1904-5 and married my grandmother Dorothy Anderson.
