Smith Anna M., w/o Frederick, d Jan 8, 1874, 39y 3m 13d
(Note: Melvin Allen reports that Eveline was the dau. of Stephen and Anna Maria Herrington.) Stephen Herrington died in Mississippi during the Civil War, and Anna Maria remarried a neighbor boy after the war; Henry Harpster who is buried in Yankee Hollow Cemetery. He is the Harpster, Henry K. Co F 92nd Ill. Vol. Inf. listed in your records. Henry Harpster died about one year after they were married, and Anna Maria became a widow again. Henry was captured and spent a lot of time in Andersonville, and was a broken man when he returned from the war. Anna eventually remarried a third time to Frederick Smith, and died in 1874 and is the Anna M. Smith listed in this cemetery. I am her great grandson.

mallen@probe.netAccording to the below transcription of Laura [Williams] House's will she left part of her estate to three children of Anna Maria House - since Evaline had died by 1888 this is partial proof for the Smith child of Anna Maria.* vlww
The WILL of Laura (Williams) House was declared 1 July, 1888. Laura divided her
estate into 9 parts to be divided as follows:
Bradford House 1 Part
Albert House 1 Part

It was given to my parents when they visited some relatives in Ansely, Ne. In my book is a picture of Anna Mariah House. About 12 years ago I visited Jo Daviess County, Illinois.
