Jane Smith

Parents

Biography

• Birth: About 1845; New Brunswick

• Death: Before 1860; Kansas

• Note: Jane was not named in the records of her father's estate filed in 1859, suggesting she may have died before 1859. However, the recollection noted above suggests she outlived her father. It may be that she died between the time her father died and the time the estate was settled?
