Katharine Smith is born in Lebanon (NH) . The following sources give her birth as 1812: I.H.2, CARLOS SMITH FAMILY RECORD, CIRCA 1840; L. Smith 1853, 41; J. Smith 1948, 4:189; and tombstone reproduced in Zion's Advocate 59 (April 1982): 59. However, 1813 seems more likely since Lucy implies that Katharine was born after her family's crisis with typhoid.
