KIZER FAMILY RECORD

Virginia KIZER, wife of Siebert SMITH, daughter of Sarah A. and  Howard  KIZER was born in Louisville, Kentucky on October 12, 1846.

She had one brother and one sister who were:  

Cary KIZER who went west during the Gold Rush (c. 1849) and was never heard from again.  

Mary KIZER married Nathan KNOTTS, a Civil War Veteran. They resided in Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio for at least part of their married life as the obituaries of Siebert SMITH indicate they had traveled to Westville for the funeral from Columbus.  

Little else is known of the Virginia KIZER’s family except that they resided for at least some time in Kentucky, probably near Louisville. I had corresponded with some descendants of other children of Virginia and Siebert. According to those descendants they were suppose to have been married in Louisville, KY. They also indicated that her family was from Page County, Virginia.
