• Notes

  In 1864, left Chariton Co. after serving a short time in the militia. He then crossed the plians to Nevada where he worked in the timber areas near Virginia City. He returned to Boonville in 1867 to bin the partnership with Nicholas. From Golden Wedding anniversary news clipping, May 2, 1918: "A strange coincidence is that Messrs Smith's, Meistrell's and Heinen's parents crossed the ocean on the same sailing vessel, settled in three different counties and had sons who married the three sisters". From another paper May 3, 1918: "The parents of smith, Meistrell and Heinen came across the ocean in the same sailing vessell and each family settled in a different county, but fate decreed that one of the sons of each should marry one of the Frankin girls." Anthony and Catherine (Franken) Smith's 60th Wedding celebration (Boonville Weekly Advertiser, 4/4/1928). Obituary of Anthony Smith (Boonville Advertiser, April 5, 1929). 1 daughter married Fred R. Baker
