Documentation:
Abner E. Smith info was found on his tombstone
in Sharon Cemetery, Moulton, Iowa and 1900 census records.
Nancy Jane Rutledge info is from Census records,death cert.,
and her obit.
Nancy was aka: Nannie and Jane
Nancy Jane Rutledge stated in the 1900 census that she gave
birth to 8 children, 6 of them living. All children listed above
listed Nancy Jane as their mother in family records, but because
there were 8 kids listed on the 1900 census with her, one was married,
and living out of the home, and two were deceased, there must have been
a previous marriage for Abner or Nancy Jane.
Info for John W. Smith,was obtained from his prayer card and death cert.
Death info for Raymond Smith was found on his tombstone.
Death info for Bert Smith was found on the SSDI.
In the Sharon Cemetery in Moulton, Iowa there are stones for Eva Smith
infant daughter of A. and N.J. Smith, Clarence G. Smith,son of A. and N.J.
Smith, and infant son of A.and A.J. Smith.
Rolph/Ralph did die young as did Frank(believed to be Charles F.)from
diabetes.
James Elmer Smith was aka "Elmer"
Abbie Mae Smith was aka "Mae"
John W. Smith was aka "Captain John"
Andrew B. Smith is believed to be "Bert"
Elizabeth was aka "Effie"
Marriage date for Abner and Nancy Jane came from the Illinois historical
society, and the above date is a date for a marriage liscense. Nov 15,1894
was the date that the preacher returned the marriage record.
Info for Elizabeth Effie Smith/Peek came from my second cousin, who resides in
Rialto, California. Elizabeth died just a few days after giving birth to her
5th child.
