Amy L. Matthews Smith | May 28th, 2007
This is probably a photo of Amy L. Matthew Smith, my great-grandmother, the wife of Dr. Sterling Tried Smith. It also was found on the Reed-Matthews family blog site. She was born in 1838 in Tennessee. Her 13 children’s names are listed on the post I just wrote about her husband Sterling. I’m looking for more info on her.
Amy and Sterling are Russ’ grandparents. Russ is the youngest of Mattie and Jim’s 10 children. He was born in 1921, so he never knew his maternal grandparents. Amy died in 1910 and Sterling died in 1917.

She reminds me vaguely of Abby and Neil. I looooooove looking at pictures of old family members.
