Posted on: Skagit Co. Wa Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Wa/Skagit/124 Surname: SMILEY ------------------------- I am researching the SMILEY family that lived for many years in Skagit County, primarily, Mt. Vernon. William Alexander m. Naomi Josephine Busey. Their children were Eva Minnie, Albert b. abt. 1887, Laura, Robert, May, Bertha, George, Molly, Charles. Eva was a school teacher in the area in the early 1900's. She was married to Willy BUSH, but divorced him and married Leroy MILLER. Later, they moved to Seattle. Albert was a sternwheeler captain and I believe that he was well known & respected in the area. I do not have any other info on the family. I hope that someone can steer me in the right direction to find more. Particularly where they originally came from. Thank you for any help.------Phyllis Ceratto Evans
