Biography

Celia Ann BEVINS was born about 1834 in Kentucky[1] and died about 2 December 1912 in Pike County, Kentucky.[2], [3] She was the daughter of Joseph BEVINS and Mary "Polly" WILLIAMSON. [4] She is buried in “Place” [5]

  • Note: Betty Keene posted that this individual died about 1909 in Kentucky on 3 April 2013. The sources of death need to be checked to see which date is the correct one, but I suspect it was the 2 December 1912 in Pike County, Kentucky.

Celia Ann BEVINS was married on 23 December 1852 in Pike County, Kentucky to Martin SMITH.[6]

Martin SMITH was born about 15 January 1825 in Virginia[7] and died on 28 May 1911 in Pike County, Kentucky.[8] He was the son of Issac SMITH and Elizabeth HESS.[9] He is buried in Canada, Kentucky.[10]

  • Although his death certificate states he was born on 15 January 1825, I suspect he was more likely born in June or later of that year due to the birth of his brother Henry SMITH.
