I am searching for DANIEL GOLDSMITH b. KY about 1800. His wife Mary had a son Riley in IL about 1845. She married George STEPHERSON and had a daughter Suzannah, in IL about 1847. I found them again in Crawford Co IN in 1850 in Patoca Twp. Mary may have married a RILEY, before George Stepherson. Children born in IN were Samuel 1832, Daniel 1835, Squire 1837, William 1839, Elizabeth 1843. Any help would be great! Thanks Danny Goldsmith
