Though twice married, a woman of Clearwater, Neb., has never changed her name since birth.  Her maiden name was Smith, and both of the men she married bore the same name.

Smith History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms. Smith is an Anglo-Saxon name. The name was originally given to a metalworker (the blacksmith). It is derived from the Old English word smid, probably derived form "smitan," which meant "to strike with a hammer."  Smith, Johnson, Williams, Brown and Jones were the most common last names, according to a Census Bureau analysis of the 2010 Census.

Meeting Maggie

Remember Maggie of the 1925 murder mystery I posted in 2011?  (If not, here is the link to THE STORY.)  (And a SEQUEL) At long last, Maggie and I got to meet in person today.  She and three friends were in town from Southern California and Nevada, to enjoy musicals at Tuacahn.  They invited me to lunch with them at Painted Pony.  Lovely day with these new friends!
