Daniel first married to Rebecca Vandeventer (1812-1865) on 07 Apr 1836 at Carroll County, Indiana. Daniel and Rebecca were the parents of one known child, namely:
1. Mary Ann Baum Smith (1837-1884)
After Rebecca died, Daniel remarried to the widow, Mrs. Mary Bassett Mason (1823-1908) on 29 Mar 1866 in presumably Indiana. It is not believed that Daniel and Mary had any children together. After Daniel died, Mary remarried to Daniel's cousin, Abraham Hanawalt in 1894.
Links to Daniel's parents, both of his wives and his only known child are included below.
