I am searching for any aditional information on Miles T. Smith (possibly Thomas) his headstone (at Nolley Memorial Cemetery in Jena, LaSalle par. La.) says he was born September 3, 1853, died January 8, 1935. the 1900 Census for Bowie Co. Tx says Miles was born in 1850.
Buried next to Miles is his wife Loulie G. b. October 17, 1861 d. April 26, 1918.
1900 Feceral Census Bowie Co. Tx

notes:
I have found a Miles Thomas Smith in the Confederate Pesion Aplication Index..not yet proved to be the same.
Miles was not on the 1910 census for Bowie co. Tx..(I don't yet know where he was again until the 1930's when he died in Jena, LaSalle Parish La.)
Gerald/Jerald Smith's tombstone says he was born in 1901... this could not be true as he was on the 1900 census.
Gerald was in Webster parish La. in 1920 working on an oil tank farm.
Gerald was in Jena LaSalle parish, La. in 1931 when he maried Zelma Inez Smith.
Gerald Is my Fiance's Grandfather ..
I have a little more information ...
Please let me know if any of this looks familiar..
any little bit would help... if I get any more I will let you know.
thank you ever so much,
Becky
