SMITH, SWEET posted by Joyce Smith on Monday, January 31, 2005: Jed SMITH and Phoebe SWEET were married in Iowa then moved to Keya Paha and Brown Counties Nebraska. They had several children, George, Lucy, Fred, Jed A., Frank, Phoebe, Levina, Charles and Howard. Jeds obituary lists the children. I am looking for Phoebes obituary and burial place. I could not find a stone in the Union Church Cemetery. She died April 20th 1915 in Keya Paha county. He died Sept. 26th 1918. And is supposed to be buried in the Cub Creek Cemetery. I would appreciate Help locating their graves.
