Genealogy By the States – Week 13 – Rhode Island

Another state in which I have no family ties, however, my husband does. Hubby’s third great-grandfather, William Lindsey lived in Smithfield, Providence Rhode Island, for a time before relocating to Illinois by 1860. I don’t really know a whole lot about William, his wife Hannah, or their children. It looked as though two of their known children were born in Rhode Island, so I though I’d check out the various records and indexes on FamilySearch to see what I could dig up.
