Lee Smith

Notes:

Per "1850 Census Sabine County, Texas with Added Family Information and Corrections," Eli N. Smith owned 3 slaves. Schluter and Toole show him as the second husband of Zeolutus Margaret Ann Boyd Harvey Smith. FindAGrave instead shows her second husband as Redden F. Smith, a son of Eli and Rachel Smith--which is most likely incorrect due to the age difference.
