Mary Smith was born some time between 1814 and 1820 in Morgan County, OH. Her father,
Nathan Smith, died in Morgan County in 1827. In 1839, Nathan's widow, Rosanna Smith,
and the younger children left Morgan County for Delaware County, IN, where Rosanna's
two oldest sons resided. She came to Delaware County with her four younger children: Mary
born sometime between 1814 & 1820; Nancy born 1821 who married Martin Ribble, Martha
born sometime between 1817 and 1822 who is believed to have married John Current, and
Stephen A. Smith who married Susannah Martin.
Some of these Smiths were members of the Mt. Tabor M. E. Church of Liberty Township. Is
there any way to find out if Mary Smith married someone in Delaware County?
Rosannah Smith, had a neighbor, Andrew Shaffer, who some believe may have married
Rosannah's daughter, Mary Smith.
Is there anyone who came tell me if this "guess" is correct?
Your assistance with my research would be greatly appreciated.
