Nannie E. Smyth1
b. circa 1870, d. 13 June 1901
BirthCirca | circa 1870 | Nannie E. Smyth was born in Washington County, Virginia, probably circa 1870 despite the fact her headstone lists her date of birth as 22 July 1871. However this conflicts with the fact her brother Hugh was born in Sept. 1871. Since Nancy was recorded as a 1 year old in her parents 1870 household, and as a 10 year old in their 1880 household it seems much more likely she was born in 1869 or 1870 and not 1871.3,4,5,6 |
Marriage | circa 1899 | She married David L. Singleton circa 1899.1,6 |
Cens-1900 | 18 Jun 1900 | David and Nannie lived in the Saltville district where David worked as a flour miller.6 |
Death | 13 Jun 1901 | Nannie died on 13 Jun 1901 of tuberculosis. Her sister Margaret died 11 days earlier from the same cause.1 |
Burial | | She was buried at Smyth Cemetery in Washington County, Virginia.4 |
Family | David L. Singleton |
Child | - Harry Singleton6 (Jan 1900 - )
