Obituary- Smith, Frank

Frank Smith, 56, one of the Oklahoma pioneers who has lived in the state for forty years and in Pottawatomie county nearly as long, died yesterday, at the Keene sanitarium after an illness of a year. He has been confined to his bed since December 1. He moved to Shawnee nine years ago from near Maud, coming here in order to be nearer his doctor.

He is survived by his widow and seven children. They are Mrs. Bertha Kenlow of Cromwell, Bill Smith of Cromwell, Mrs. R. H. Dodson of Maud, and Monroe, George, Darroll and Roy, all of whom live at home. There is one sister, Mrs. C. E. Wiley of Maud and two other sisters who live in Kansas.

Funeral services will be conducted at the Gaskill chapel at 1:30 o’clock this afternoon, with Rev. J. A. Hailey of the Calvary Baptist church.—Shawnee Oklahoma Daily News.


Mr. Smith is a former resident of this community, having left here about 1890. He will be remembered by some of the older residents.
