Can anyone tell me who Francies C. Smith was? Who were her parents?
This what I found on LDS.
Thomas S. Byrd
m. Francis C. Smith
, Franklin, TN
23 Jun 1880
There is no other information on this person that I can find.
It would seem that part of my family came from , Franklin, TN
I've been looking for Thomas E. Byrd b. Oct 1876 TN/AL/TN
Thanks for any help.
I HAVE CENSUS DATING BACK TO 1850: On the Smith family that may be part of my Byrd's

(A copy of a post that I've put every place I can find).

Everyone has been great in helping me with this...
I can find two possible Thomas Byrds in my search for the truth. One born in MS and one in TN. The one listed below is the correct one. Can anyone help me find Thomas E. Byrd's parents? I've been in every site I can find. Yes I know to order the SS application to get the names, I just don't have the $27 it takes to get it right now.
