Henry Smith is not found on the 1880 census so likely died between 1878 and
1880 (note: Sarah was still married at time of death in 1878) He is likely
buried next to Sarah, however, there is no headstone or marker on the grave.
(later found Henry in 1880 census)

"It isvery likely that MEL___ AND DOROTHY SMITH who are buried next to
Henry's wife and child are the parents of HENRY SMITH."
