* Born in Jefferson County, Indiana, Joseph Eddy Smith, at about age two, migrated with his family to St. Joseph, Missouri, and from there across the plains to Oregon, where his parents, Joseph SMITH and Margaret MATHER SMITH, homesteaded in Multnomah County (Donation Lan Claim #3418), about five miles northwest of Portland, bordering Washington County. As a young man, Joseph Eddy SMITH returned to his mother's birthplace of LaRue County, Kentucky from Oregon. There he married Nancy "Nannie" Elizabeth SCOTT, 14 March 1877, Hodgensville, LaRue County, KY. There they started a family, then sometime later (after 1885) they returned to Cedar Mill, Oregon, (Multnomah & Washington counties) near his parents original land claim.
