THE SMITH PROJECT: James Perry Smith and Lillie Jane Daniels

This is the first page completed of a compilation of ancestor profiles and stories from Robert James Smith and Nancy Sloan’s descendants.  Robert Smith and Nancy had six children together before Nancy died of consumption in 1859.  Robert goes on to remarry and have 10 more children but that is another story. The focus of the Smith Project is on Ursley’s siblings and her siblings children.  Particular attention will be given to Ursley’s brother William Smith because his descendants end up being buried in the same county and some in the same cemetery even that my husband and I will be buried. There is a story to be written about how I got to this point of writing about James and Lillie that will be told soon, until then happy reading!
