I am looking for descendants of Cornelius V and Melsena (RAY) SMITH. Melsena and Cornelius were married in Johnson Co Indiana about 1863. They had two daughters who both died at very early age and are buried with parents. Cornelius died in 1870. Melsena married Henson Orme abt 1872. He died in 1874. The only place Charles SMITH appears is the 1880 Census as the 16 yr old son of Melsena ORME. This would have made his birthdate in the 2 years between his parents marriage and the birth of his oldest sister, which makes sense. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Lorraine Doty
