Hodge, Smith, Schneider - Richmond, Indiana
Hello,
I was antiquing in Nashville in southern Indiana yesterday and wanted to let this forum know that in the Brown County Antique Mall on St. Rt. 46 (812-988-1025) there is a very large, framed marriage certificate for Joseph SCHNEIDER and Emma D. SMITH (I can't remember for sure but I think it was 1906).
A little research indicates that this marriage may have been a second marriage for Emma, her first being to a Fred SMITH.It appears that Emma's maiden name may have been HODGE.If I have found the right family it also appears that she may have had no children.Since I don't know anything else about this family, I'm not positive these names/facts are correct.
I asked the owner if the price of $90(!) was negotiable and she said that she would be glad to query the booth owner.I had originally seen this certificate two or three years ago so since it's been there for a rather long time.
