Notes for LAFAYETTE SAMUEL SMITH:
Record of Lafayette in the Bureau of Land Management.
According to the family tree printout created by Newell Ford Smith, Lafayette married a Nettie, which jibes with the census record for Lafe. In it are also recorded four children-- two are unnamed. The other two are Dewey and Mable. I donot know yet if Dewey was Frank's middle name, or if this was a separate child. More research to follow.
I found Lafe buried in Burnsland Cemetery, in Calgary, but can find no grave listing for Nettie there. His birthdate matches. Death date is shown as 1944. I'll check with Marty and see if he or his sister know anything about when Lafedied. Lafe farmed in Burdett for about 10 years, then moved into Calgary.
Obit is on the way from the Alberta Genealogical Society (October 10, 2005).
