  1930 United States Census for James Madison Smith and family Name: J M Smith Gender: Male Birth Year: abt 1862 Birthplace: Tennessee Race: White Home in 1930: Waurika, Jefferson, Oklahoma Marital Status: Married Relation to Head of House: Head Spouse's Name: Ethel Smith Father's Birthplace: Alabama Mother's Birthplace: Alabama Household Members: Name Age J M Smith 68 Ethel Smith 38 Leota Smith 12 [2] Dorthy Smith 4 See http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=smith&GSfn=norvel&GSbyrel=all&GSdyrel=all&GSst=38&GScntry=4&GSob=n&GRid=39375862&df=all& 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.
