Smith Family, Mississippi
A photo of the Smith family in MIssissippi. This is my great grandfather and grandmother. He is seated with his arm around the youngest and is William Thomas Smith if I remember correctly. His wife is Eliza Meredith (Elizabeth). I believe that my grandfather is between Great Aunt Lydia America Smith who married Great Uncle Charles Henley on the far left and Fanny but I forget her married name at this moment.

Benjamin E. Meredith
I’ve “rescued” an old photograph identified as that of Benjamin E. MEREDITH which was taken at the Taber Studio in San Francisco, CA and dated August 1882. Benjamin is listed as 18 years old at the time. Someone has also written “Wire Chief, Tucson, Arizona to Las Vegas, New Mexico” and “Manager Deming, New Mexico Local Office of Western Telegraph Company” on the back of the photograph. I’m hoping to locate someone from this MEREDITH Family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to the care of his family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
