      B.J.,

      This is actually my husband's lineage. I don't know if you got my other emails or not, so I'll list it
      again. My husband is Lindsey Edward Smith 1961-. His parents were James Payton Smith 1922-2004
      and Sue Jane Walton, 1928-2005 (both are buried in McCuiston Cemetery). James Payton Smith's
      parents were Thomas Grady Smith 1900-1974 and Rose May Thomas 1904-1947. Thomas Grady Smith's
      parents were James William Smith, 1859-1928 and Stanotus Pocahontas Ferguson 1859-1946 (both are
      buried in McCuiston Cemetery-#5 I think). James William Smith's parents were Albert Ross Smith, 1831-
      1860 and Nancy J McCuiston, 1831-1888. Nancy's parents were William McCuiston, 1794-1858 and
      Cynthia McCuiston, 1800-1884. William's parents were Moses McCuister and Elizabeth Blair. Cynthia's
      parents were Thomas McCuiston, 1772-1852 and Nancy Johnson, 1778-1842. And so on and so
      on... Please forgive any errors.

      We live in New Orleans, but Eddie, my husband, is from Murray. I was born and bred here. I would like
      to surprise him with some detailed information of his lineage and have him be able to connect with
      current family, however distant. If I am bothering you in anyway, I am sorry. But I would like to thank
      you for the information. I do not have any of the literature that you have named and I am fairly new to
      ancestry (a couple of years). I started on my own first.

      Again, thank you so much for your help and if you are in the Murray area we will be there visiting my
      sister-in-law in the near future. If you'd rather I'd not contact you again, I will respectfully honor your
      wishes.

      Respectfully yours,
      Danielle Smith
