...Some notes were written where they would not be associated with a name. Carats designate Fern's additions. Parentheses are shown as they are in the two sheets of genealogical material, but I have added them to the notecard at the beginning. Brackets enclose comments that I made for clarification. Double underscore begins a page. The exhibit is a notecard with the information written on two sheets of paper, front and back, and no extant envelope. (See Daniel Smith, 1807-1893, for the complete letter.) JDS
--- In 1900, Amelia says that she had 10 children, and seven are living.
