Beneta McKendree

According to family tradition, in a family plot north of the main cemetery and east of the picnic shelter, in unmarked graves, are: Manning Smith; his daughter Beneta Smith McKendree, second wife of George G. McKendree; and two of his grandsons, brothers Walter and Oscar Smith, sons of Elijah Smith and Sarah Ann Howell Smith, said to have been killed in a railroad accident during boyhood.

Beneta's date of death was after the 25 SEP 1874 birth of son James Thomas McKendree and before the marriage of her widower, George G. McKendree, on 29 DEC 1875.
