Notes:

1/30/2011 The Surname "Lovely" is speculation based upon the 1951 Death Certificate of one Mitchel Smith. The evidence is strong based upon the County (Morgan). Parent's names and that the burial occurred in a family cemetery in Korea, Kentucky which is where the Back Cemetery is.
Further evidence with the discovery of Richard L Smith and Ellen in the 1930 Census of Morgan County, Kentucky on the same and the preceding page of the census there are several families with the "Lovely" surname.

Notes:

Birth:
**** Note ****
William was NOT born in Wise County, Virginia unless he was referring to the place after it was created in 1856 from Lee, Russell, and Scott Counties. William stated in his pension application that he came to Kentucky in 1850. So, he either came to Kentucky later than he stated or perhaps he kept in contact with family who ended up in Wise County after its formation. Wise County did not exist at the time of his birth in 1842. If the 1860 Census record (see below) is indeed an enumeration of William Harrison Smith then, it is probable that William Harrison Smith was born in Russell County, Virginia where his probable brother's marriage took place (see the marriage record of B.F. Smith - probably Benjamin Franklin Smith who I believe to be the older brother of William Harrison Smith).
