My Smiths were in Harrision County, IN in the early 1800s. Chad Smith had at least one
child, as son named Horatio G. Smith who was born in about 1803 in New York. Horatio G.
Smith married Margaret (Allstott) Smith 10/23/1839 in Harrison County, IN. Before
Margaret (Allstott) Smith died in 1859 of pneumonia, she gave birth to Son John Smith in
1841 in IN. ; Son Montgomery Smith in 1843 in IN ; Son Marion Smith in 1846 in IN.;
Daughter Julian Smith in 1848 in IN; Son Marshall Smith in 1854 in IL.
Horatio Smith's family is listed on the 1860 U.S. Census in Palestine, Crawford
County, IL on page 441.
Horatio will marry Mary A. Wilson in Crawford Country, IL on July 28, 1861 and divorced
her about three years later for abandonment. He will married another Margaret before 1870.
Horatio Smith will die around 1881.
I hope this will help. If you have any information that I might not have, I would really
appreicate it if you'd share it with me.
Respectfully,
Gary Smith
