Family 1 : Elizabeth PARKS

INDEX

[33298]

Mr. Layne A. Holley posted in Ancestry.com: "Peter Smice was born March 21, 1801 in Tell Township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. His obituary lists "Pennsylvania" as his place of birth, moving to Maryland later. The 1880 census of Ogle County, Illinois, recorded "Maryland" as Peter Smice's place of birth. He was the seventh child of Johannes Schmeiss and Maria Elizabeth French. Johannes Schmeiss was a Hessian soldier, a Private in Company 5 of the von Knyphausen Regiment, who was captured at the Battle of Trenton during the Revolutionary War. Maria French was the daughter of John and Maria French.

"In the 1800 census, the Schmeiss family (now called Smice) are residing in Shirley Township, Shirleysburg Borough, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania. On June 27, 1824, Peter Smice married Elizabeth PARKS in Hagerstown, Washington County, Maryland. Records indicate that this marriage produced ten (10) children: Margaret, Susanna, Elizabeth, Rebecca, John, George, Lydia Amelia, Mary Louisa, Nathan and Alonzo Keith. Peter Smice and his family are residing in Boonesboro, Washington County, Maryland in the 1830 census. There is a land record of Peter Smice selling land to a 'Samuel McKee' dated 1833, Washington County, Maryland.

"According to the obituary of Peter Smice, the family moved to Ohio in 1844. From there, the Smice family migrated to Ogle County, Illinois in 1848. This obituary also mentions that "Mr. and Mrs. Smice belonged to the Lutheran Church in Maryland, but never joined here. While in Ogle County just a short time, death struck. Elizabeth Parks Smice died October 3, 1849. Cemetery records indicate that Elizabeth died of 'Bilious Cholic, sick one day'. This left Peter Smice with several small children to raise.

"In the 1850 census Peter Smice and five (5) children are found residing in Pine Creek Township, Ogle County, Illinois. A Land Patent, certificate number 32000, dated January 10, 1851, describes forty acres of land sold to Peter Smice of Ogle County, Illinois. The President of the United States at this time was Millard Fillmore.

"Peter Smice is found in the 1860 census with three (3) children living at home, ages 18-25, in Grand Detour Township, Ogle County, Illinois. Peter is mentioned in the 1865 Agricultural Census as residing in Ogle County. In the 1870 census of Pine Creek Township, Ogle County, Illinois, Peter Smice is the head of the household. Living with him is his son, Nace (Nathan Smice, age 23), his widowed daughter, Amelia Trump (age 28) and his granddaughter, Lydia A. Trump (age 2).

"On March 8, 1877, by making his mark ("X"), Peter Smice recorded his Will. He stated he was 73 years old and a resident of Grand Detour, Ogle County. He bequeathed one dollar to his daughters: Susanna Keith (wife of John Keith), Margaret Nettz (wife of Henry Nettz) and Elizabeth Welty (wife of John Welty). The rest of his estate he bequeathed to be equally divided between and among his sons and daughters: John Smice, George Smice, Nace Smice, Mary Lawver (wife of Andrew J. Lawver) and Amelia Trump (widow of Oli Trump). Peter appointed his son, John Smice, and a man named 'James Rogers' as executors of his will. Witnesses to his Will was John D. Wiley, Henry Lawver, and William Jones.

"In the 1880 census of Grand Detour, Ogle County, Illinois, Peter Smice is listed as the head of the household, age 76, unemployed, and being born in Maryland. He listed his father as being born in Baden, Germany. Living with Peter was his daughter, 'Milla' (Amelia, age 36) and his granddaughter, Lydia (age 12).

"Peter Smice died January 30, 1884 in Grand Detour, Illinois. He was buried next to his wife in the Pine Creek Brethren Cemetery (old Dunkards Cemetery) in Pine Creek Township, Ogle County, Illinois. From his obituary in the Dixon Evening Telegraph, dated February 7, 1884, Dixon, Lee County, Illinois, page 4: '…Two children died several years ago, and eight children, twenty-five grand children and nine great grandchildren await the summons of the Master.'
