Never married. Had 2 children with Jason Calloway [Cal] Cudd. they were Herbert Smith who died of typhoid in his Army Camp during WWI(2/16/1896-2/16/1918)and Rosa Alice Smith (1898-1986 who married George McKinley Brown on 11/4/1917.

She always lived with her parents until their death, then she moved and lived with her daughter's family until her own death... helping raise children, cooking, cleaning, chopping wood [till she was over 90].

A few years before her death [about age 100] she fell and broke her hip, did not have surgery due to risk of death and lived the rest of her life in a wheel chair.

She was not a person who talked much, but worked hard. She was a slender and petite woman. She could read and liked reading the Asheville paper. Never saw her do any other reading.
