  • Notes 
    • According to Census records and death records, Ephraim was not born in England but was born in the United States in about 1800 (possibly Warren County, New York). He is listed as the father on my g grandmother, Martha M Smith's, marriage data. She was married at Clear Creek, Houghton, Norfolk, Ontario, Canada

      questions?
      1. Where was Ephraim born? There is an Asa Smith in !800 census in Thurman, Washington, Ny. Thurman is a town now in the western part of Warren County just north of Saratoga Springs. It lies entirely inside the Adirondack Park. Warrensburg is about 5 miles east of Thurman. (1800 Census Thurman, Washington, NY, Asa Smith - 1 - - 2 // 1 1 - - 2)
      (1800 Census Bolton, Washington, NY, Asa Smith - - 2 - 1 // - 2 - - 1 and Asa Jr. - - 1 - // 1 2 - - 1 There is also a
      Benjamin, Nathaniel, and David Smith on this page.)

      Note: I think that Ephraim was married before he married Mary Steward. (see 1851 Census) The son David in the 1851 census may be the D Smith in the 1861 census.

      Hi Marilyn, Glen Meyer is already done and online here: <http://cemetery.canadagenweb.org/ON/ONG12905/> The Ephraim K. there is 1858 - 1932 You may save that photo from there if you want it. They are my pics so I can give you that permission. The Rev. Ephraim at Hillcrest has no stone of his own but is more likely to be the one you want. He is listed as husband of Anna who died 19 Nov 1853 aged 49 I have attached a pic of that stone. Let me know if you need anything else. Kate On 21/07/2012 11:41 AM, marlparker@aol.com wrote:
      Hi Kate,
      I found your name on Gebweb. It mentioned you might be willing to take a picture of a headstone at The Glenmeyer Baptist Cemetery, in Norfok County.
      If this is so, my ancestor is Ephraim K Smith born about 1800. Following is the source for his death. Thank you for any help you can give me.
