• Notes

  1860 census, Barry, pg 101/110, Daniel 32, Harriet 32, Josiah 7, Mary Ann 4 1870 census, Barry, Daniel 42, Harriet 41, Jesse 18, Mary A 16, Elias Mattern 16 Jesaias (Josiah) 1852, sp parents (at Kimmel) death certificate says: 5Oct 1827 - 4 Sep 1907 widower father Danial Smith, born Penna mother Harriet Wetzel, born Mahantonga informant Josiah Smith, Deep Creek or Higgins __? No doctor or corroner, fell from back of mule on head either a fracture of skull or of spine The problem is that Harriet Wetzel was this Daniel's wife.So the "mother" spot is filled in with his wife. That begs the question of whether the informant Josiah was thinking of his father (ie, Daniel) when they filled in that, or the deceased Daniel's father. It's not clear to me that this is enough evidance to say that Daniel's father was a Daniel Senior. The one letter from Jesse Smith (who went to Ohio) referred to "Daniel Smith's boys" which I had already guessed was the father of the nearby Barry Twp boys. So I was happy to see Daniel Smith listed as the father of this Daniel. Still, as mentioned above, I have reservations on accepting this theory yet.
