Oak Hill Cemetery
Evansville, Indiana
Edward Q. Smith
Marion W. Smith
Section 7, Lot 49, Graves 1 & 2
This grave marker caught my attention yesterday when I was at the cemetery. The mid-section with the four columns is newer than the rest of the marker below & above. The older portions are made of limestone, while the new part is made of polished granite.

This would be my families tombstone. I believe E.Q. was my great-great-grandfather. He was the owner Of the E.Q. Smith Chair Company in Evansville, IN. He committed suicide after losing the factory in a high-stakes poker game. Almost all of the 1st born sons in the Smith family have the first name of Edward.
