Hi Mary,

Thanks for the info. There is a road on the south side of Terre Haute called Woodsmall Road, runs East and West. My maiden name was Woodsmall and I have driven down Woodsmall Rd to the intersection of McDaniel Rd. My cousin and I have had our picture taken at the intersection. My Aunt Edith Ring Woodsmall was the one who told me about the tombstones being buried under the barn. Since most of my immediate family was in Sullivan Co. I am more familiar with that area. My Grandmother was Zora McDaniel Woodsmall. She had three brothers, John, Walker and Porter. Her sisters were Alice (married William Myers), Zona (married a Dix and then Commodore Anderson), and Tressie (first marriage to James O'Neal, last to Romaine Ratcliff). Their father was Francis Marion McDaniel who married Zorilda Lloyd (daughter of John G. Lloyd and Mary Polly Chowning). Francis was the son of James and Phebe ? McDaniel/McDonald. James was son of Aaron McDaniel and Mary Fields. James had the f!

g siblings: Malvina (1830), John, Hyram, Almira, Elizabeth, Albert, Samual,Mary, Joseph. Francis Marion had siblings: Sarah, Mary and Robert. Do these fit into any thing you have on McDaniel/McDonald?

When Francis Marion married Zorilda the marriage record indicates that his last name was McDonald but when he married the second time he is listed as McDaniel.
