However, they are the ancestors/relatives of my Uncle Thomas W. Hutchins (1860-1911) (RIN 2021), so I have researched them to a small extent.;

* Despite the similarities, this does not seem to be the same family, though it is interesting that I can't find James M. Guffey & Mary E. Smiley anywhere else in 1880. This probably IS them, but the census taker messed up the entry somehow;
