Elinor was the daughter of Philip Titus and Mary Marvin Titus. She was raised at Middletown, New York and Kingston, New York where her father was a railroad conductor. They relocated to Norwich, New York about 1915. Elinor attended Oneonta Normal School and was elected, in 1915, as the state orator for the Arethusa United Alumnae Association convocation. Elinor was a kindergarten teacher at Akron, Ohio before she married to Arnold Smith on 2 July 1921 at Kingston. He was a chemist for Thermoid Rubber Company at Trenton, New Jersey and later a Monsanto Rubber Company executive. His work allowed the family to relocate often to such places as Illinois where their first three daughters were born and to England where their last daughter was born. When Elinor’s father died in 1937, she and her daughters returned to Walton until about 1943 when they relocated permanently to Saint Louis. Elinor and Harry were the parents of four daughters; Nancy Orme Smith, who did not marry, Sandra Sinclair Smith, who married to Harry Joseph Trembley, Prudence Marvin Smith, who did not marry, and Esther Arnold Smith, who did not marry.
