Helen Atwood Jones married twice. First to Palmer Luther Lancaster and then to Roger Schmidt Kilgus. As she married quite young the first thing she did after I was born was go back to high school and graduate. After her second husband died she decided to go to college. She moved to Bowling Green, KY, rented an apartment near the campus. Carol Leah, the youngest child moved with her. Her grades were all A's and she graduated with honors. Later she finished her Master's Degree at Western University. This made tradition as she graduated after I did from Western.
After teaching in Bowling Green she moved back to Louisville, KY. By this time all the children were married and I was the only child living in Louisville. She taught one year in Louisville before she had a heart attack and died the last week of school.
The last year she would come to my house on Tuesday afternoons for dinner. She loved to drink whiskey sours. She was not a drinker by nature, however she learned to love Tuesdays. Her favorite meal was rolled lamb.
We never understood her and she never understood us. Made for complicated relationships. She was not a prejudice person and passed on those ideas to us. Education was important to her. It wasn't if we would go to college but where. Western was my choice, Mazie chose Indiana University. Bing went to the pharmacy school in Louisville, When he graduated University of Kentucky was the school and we went to his graduation.
When she died in the hospital I was talking to her on the phone. The only comment she made was "I have to go now". Later when they found her she still had the phone in her hand. Her health was always an issue. We would tease her on all the pills she would take and her own way of doctoring herself. 60 was an early age to die.

This is the only Census where I found Claudsley W. Smith. He is listed as between 20 and 30, with a wife between 20 and 30 and a daughter under 5. These facts fit with the information I have.
It is possible he had brothers and maybe a father living in the same area and on the same Census page. The 1830 Census only gave the head of household and only a range of dates for births.
The Census lists his birth as Vermont.
His birth would be approximately at the earliest 1800. As his wife was 16 at the time of their marriage II would guess he was at least 18 to 20. He was old enough to go through her money that was left from her family
Their daughter was named Mary and would fit in the age range. Claudsley left her alone with the child and took off for parts unknown. Years later he appeared at Frances's house ill. She took him in and nursed him at least back to health enough for their second child, George Lawrence Smith to be born. Claudsley died soon after and she was left to rear another child alone.
There is no indication that he ever helped support his family in any way. Supposedly he worked on a boat. Guessing it went up and down the Ohio River as far as it could go and he choose far.

Frances's age on the 1870 Census is incorrect. It should be 79 instead of what is listed as 37.
I notice that she was listed as keeping the home. Telitha, George Lawrence Smith's wife is listed as "at home". The three girls were alive at the time.
This keeps with the idea she was demanding and Telitha on her wedding day was told to sew.Died at residence of son George Lawrence Smith March 18, 1889, age 75

George Lawrence Smith owned his own Tile Company in Louisville for over 50 years. He was a master at tile. The house in Louisville, KY 1420 Hepburn Ave. was tinned and tiled by him. Each fireplace was different and all hand made.
He was a Mason at the Compass Lodge for fifty years. He was given a silver service set by the Lodge. It is now in the posession of Tracey Gard Young of Bowling Green, KY. Tracey is the youngest child of Carol Leah Kilgus Gard.
When I was young I lived most of the time with my grandparents on Hepburn Ave. The house was pictured in Louisville Today.

Smith-Saturday, October 13, at 5 p.m. Telitha A. Smith (nee Russell), widow of George L. Smith. Funeral from the residence (can't read number) East Broadway. Monday afternoon at ? o'clock. Interment private in Cave Hill Cemetery.This was in the Courier Journal October 14, 1923.
I always like to believe that Telitha held me when I was a baby. I was born in March so she would have opportunity as she lived with my grandmother and grandfather. We believe that the women in the family inherited the tendency to cancer from her. From stories told her mother in law Frances Ellen Slaughter Smith was sort of a tyrant making her sew the first day of her marriage. Later in a Census Frances listed herself under her son and gave little information about Telitha. being the wife of George Lawrence Smith. Frances Ellen also fudged on her birth years.
I have a picture of my grandmother Leah and of Telitha. They say I look so much like her and I believe I do.
