If Nancy's birth date is calculated based on a death age of 79 years, 5 months and 16 days, as it seems to appear on her grave marker, her father (born circa 1798] would have been 12 and her mother [born 1799] would have been 11 when she was born. It is more likely that her actual age at death was 70 years, 5 months and 16 days, which is the calculated date used here. Although her grave marker looks like she was 79, it could easily be intrepreted as 70 as well. More research might reveal the correct birth year for her.

It is believed that the photo is of Nancy Elizabeth Smith Poust. On the back of the photo it reads: Grandmother Poust....Lola Poust Santee's" This would be Lola Edna Poust, who married Walter Santee and her grandmother was Nancy Elizabeth Smith Poust.
