Hello Everyone,
It's been some time since I've posted this information asking for help.....I
am still trying to find out more about my ancestor Jacob C. SMITH (wife,
Mary A. McKenzie) and his family who moved to Knox Co. from Harrison Co
probably around 1861? Here is most of what I do know ...
Jacob C. SMITH, b: 1832, d: 1878, Knox Co, IN, md: Mary A. McKENZIE
(1828-1901) 1856, Harrison Co, IN. I do not know where he was buried, but
Mary McKenzie Smith is buried in Davies Co at the Maysville Cem. I know
they had a farm outside of Frichton, IN.
Would like to locate a will or estate papers for both Jacob & Mary if it's
at all possible. Would anyone be able to help?
Children:
1) Mary R., b: 1856, md: Edward B. RULE in 1876
2) John Thomas, b: 1858, md: 1) Dorie WILSON; 2) said to have been an
Indian (name unknown), had at least one son, William Smith and a daughter,
Ellie, who md: a RAY and died ca: 1959-60; 3) wife, Ellie LIKE
3) George F, b: 1862, Knox Co. never married, d: 1831.
4) James C., b: 1862, Knox Co. d: 1863
5) Alice, b: 1863, Knox Co. md: Miles W. WILLIAMSON
6) Sarah J., b: 1865, Knox Co. md: Jonas JACOBS
7) Emma C., b: 1868, Knox Co. md: William WELTON
8) Darius Jacob, b: 1870, Knox Co. md: Barbara Jane ZIGLER in
1896.She was the dau. of Aaron N. ZIGLER and Barbary Ann
PAVEY. (This is my line.)
Barbary PAVEY ZIGLER died Aug. 25, 1880, Knox Co, IN. Is she in a cemetery
listing somewhere? I would love to find out where she is buried if at all
possible.
I am in hopes that someone can help fill in some blanks. I really would
like to find some of these families' descendants.
Thank you.
