    Find-A-Grave record for Norvell Floyd Smith - possible grandson of James Madison Smith) Norvell's parents are listed as Mitchell Fillmore Smith and Virginia Lee Poston - they are nowhere to be found in the census records so far. The states do line up. Thinking Mitchell might be the son of James Madison from a 1st marriage - especially due to their ages in the 1930 census.
