PARENTS



Note: Elizabeth (Taylor) Smith is living in Holmesville, Appling County, Georgia on 15th July 1870 as a widowed housekeeper with her family. The children living with them at this time are; Mary age 12 - Emaline age 8 - Dennis age 6 and Benj B. age 4months. Elizabeth is shown as having a net worth of $120.00 in personal property.
Note: Note: we don't know who the father of Benjamin is. He is listed as a Smith in the census dut Dennis died in 1864 so we assume that Elizabeth had and affair with someone after the death of her husband Dennis but they never married. There is some speculation that there was a possible relationship between Benjamin Batchelor "Meadows" Medders and Elizabeth after the civil war, but we have no documented proof. Dennis brother Edward J Smith married Margaret "Meadows" Medders the daughter of Benjamin B "Meadows" Medders. We may never know!
