Subject: [OHHURON-L] Merritt & Francis (Curtis) Smith of Fitchville Twp., Huron Co., OH

Hi Everyone,

Ive spent years searching for the parents of my Merritt J. Smith, b. 1861
and d. 1915 in Akron, OH. His death cert. indicates that his parents are
Merritt Smith and Frances Curtis. Ive been researching Merritt Smiths all
over the country trying to find one with a wife named Frances. The 1860
Fayette Co. IA and 1870 Huron Co. OH census suggest that I may have finally
found them but that her name may be Francis Curtis with an i (b. in OH).
Their oldest child was b. ca. 1855 in MI so perhaps they were married in MI.
I found a record for a Eugene Lester Smith, b. 1 Sept. 1873 in Huron Co.,
OH with parents listed as Merritt Smith and Francis Curtiss.

Does anyone have a copy of the Huron Co. cemetery inscription book that
could please check to see if there is a Merritt and Francis/Frances/Fannie
Smith listed. They would have died after the birth of Eugene in 1873.

Perhaps Francis is related to the other Curtis in Fitchville Twp?

Thank you very, very much.

Sincerely,
