Removed Waters as the current last name. There is no evidence for this information. She was married to "Smith" and this is noted on the 1880 census. Also her middle name was not Jane but was at the very least the middle initial of "E" per the 1880 census and is probably "Ellen" as noted elsewhere but I haven't seen actual documents to prove it yet.
