William T. Smith b. c 1841 |
| Marriage* | circa 1871 | She married William T. Smith, son of George W. (of Geo) Smith (carpenter) and Eliza C. Wilkins, circa 1871 at Accomack Co, VA. When Mr. Joe Smith of Saxis died suddenly at Newport News on 14 Oct 1923, his obituary said he was formerly of Savageville. A search of the 1860 census shows Wm. Smith, age 19 was living with his parents Geo. W. & Eliz'th Smith in Pungoteauge and Nicetta S. Nelson, age 18, was living with her parents Edmund Leatherbury & Sally Nelson in Savageville. Of all the William Smiths found in the 1860 Accomack Co census, this seems to be the best match. No marriage record has been found for William T. Smith and Nicetta S. Nelson..7 |

John Aaron Linton1
M, b. circa 1861, d. 30 June 1935
| Birth* | circa 1861 | John was born circa 1861 at Saxis Island, Acc Co, VA.2 |
| Biography* | 1862 | John Aaron Linton's birth year is uncertain. Since he was not listed with his parents in the 1860 Census, he must have been born after that time. He is not in the household with his mother Nancy, sister Jane (14) and brother George (17) in 1870. He does appear with his mother Nancy, 49 and widowed, in 1880 when he is shown as 22 and single. In 1900, with his wife Melissa and family, his birth is shown as Jan 1860. In 1910, with his wife Melissa and family, he is 45 (b.c. 1865). In 1920, he is again with his wife Melissa and family, age 49 (b.c. 1871). Based on not being in his parents household in 1860 and being 22 in 1880, it is assumed he was born shortly after the 1860 Census (b.c. 1861). It is unclear where he was in the 1870 Census. Mr. John A. Linton died at Saxis on 30 Jun 1935 (age not listed). Funeral services were conducted by Rev. McKeawn and Walls at the Saxis Methodist Church with burial in the Justice Cemetery, Saxis.

| Death* | 30 June 1935 | John died on 30 June 1935 at Saxis Island, Acc Co, VA. His death record shows him as John A. Linton, age 70, born 1865, who died at Saxis, Accomack Co, VA, 30 Jun 1935, the son of George Linton & Nancy Small(?) and the husband of Melissa Linton..4,5 |
