I am trying to find the parents of a Mary Lou (Louvenia) SMITH who married a William Jefferson SANSOM after 1870. William Jefferson Sansom was previously married to a BENNETT who died young. William Jefferson Sansom married his first wife in Gonzales County, Texas, but I am unaware of where he married Mary Lou Smith. Mary Lou Smith Sansom's death certificate (1944) states her father was Thomas Smith and her mother was a Lizzie LYNCH. I have also been told her mother was a NORMAN not a Lynch. Any help would be appreciated. Cindy
