Who am I????

My grandma has entrusted  me with a big and special project. She had a bunch of old black and white photos but no longer remembers who they people in the photos are. If you recognize people in the photos please leave me a message so I can help her with this project.  They are all relatives of Thomas Smith (1883-1968), Mary Rhuperta Whiting (1885-1973), Evan George Evans (1894-1951), or Eva Arzell Thompson (1895-1988).

Joseph Bateman and Mary Eliza Allen

This is my Great Great Grandma on my mom's side. I was searching to find out who her parent's were. My Grandma has is listed on her hard copy as Joseph Bateman and Mary Eliza Allen. I wasn't able to prove it and it's not on my Family Tree on new.familysearch.org but I have found errors there before.

While I was searching I found this. I don't know who posted it or how long it has been on the internet. Someone just posted it as a Word Document. It's all about their life. If you posted it thank you for writing down their stories so I too can enjoy them!!!

William Smith and Rebecca Mary Grimshaw

Parents of Thomas Smith,

Their Family Group Chart http://www.williampsmith.com/fgsf18.html

William and Mary Smith had 11 children. They began their life in England then immigrated to the United States of America in 1842 after becoming members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in 1840.

Thomas Smith and Emily Cope Smith

This the 4th tier on my Family Tree. It's Thomas Smith Jr's Father and Mother. As I was searching for information about my family I stumbled upon Emily Cope Smith's History. Here's the link http://www.williampsmith.com/oh003.html

Thomas Smith Jr. and Mary Ruperta Whitting

These are my Grandpa Smith (Thomas V Smith) parents. They had 5 children and my grandpa was the youngest. As I looked through the names of their children ( Burnetta Emily Smith Duncan, Thomas E Smith, Donna Rhuperta Smith, William Rondo Smith, and Thomas V Smith) I noticed that they had 2 Thomas Smith's. Their second child (Thomas E) died in 1923 when he was 15 years old and a year before my grandpa was born.
