Albert, Clark and William died at a young age and are buried in a unknown cemetery in Menifee County, Ky. They may be in this cemetery with their father or in the Dan Ridge Smith cemetery with their grandparents, John and Elizabeth Smith.

John's daughter's collected enough money to have a headstone placed on his grave many years later. I have seen the photo, but don't know who has it. Any info is appreciated. This family cemetery is now neglected and overgrown with stones broken or obliterated as cattle grazed the fields.
