Mary Ellen Van Vliet Smith



Born 12 February 1916 at Goshen, Orange County, New York
Died 12 August 1982 at Palenville, Greene County, New York

Mary was the second of three children born to John Jewell Van Vliet and Adelaide De Kay Grier Van Vliet. She was raised at Goshen where her father was the proprietor of a home furnishings store. Mary married to Robert Bruce Smith, Junior on 23 October 1938 at Goshen. They made their home at Catskill where her husband was a retail grocery clerk. I found no information about the family after 1940. Her husband died at Hudson, New York in 1973. Mary's last known residence was at Catskill. She was buried at Town of Catskill Cemetery. Mary and Robert were the parents of two children, both daughters. Mary is John More Association Jean Line cousin #M5.10.181 and was the wife of my fourth cousin, twice removed.
