52. Lanphier???
or.
53. Lamphier???
Devier J. Lamphier changed his name to Devier James Smith on 21 March 1866 in Dodge County, Wisconsin. His birth parents are not known, but were probably living in Jefferson county, New York in the period before 1843. His father may be a Lamphier (or with other alternative names - Lamphear, Lamphere, Lamfear, Lanphier, Lanphere, Lanphear, Lanfear, etc.). His mother may be a Lamphier also - she may have had the baby out of wedlock and gave him up for adoption.
Devier J. Smith's adoptive parents were Ranslow and Mary (Bell) Smith, who married and lived in Henderson, Jefferson county, NY before 1840. They moved to Dodge County, Wisconsin before 1843, and Mary died there in 1865. Ranslow Smith, and his son, Devier J. Smith, moved to Taylor county, IA in 1867, thence to Andrew County, MO, where Ranslow died. Devier Smith moved to Cloud County KS, Pottawatomie County KS, Marshall County KS, Red Willow County NE and Cheyenne County KS.
If anybody has information about the Devier J. Smith family, or the Lamphier/etc. family in New York and Wisconsin in the 1820-1870 time period, I would appreciate hearing from you!
