Posted by Elizabeth Veserat I have a lot of information on the Congdon family prior to this time but don't know what happened to my great gradfather's siblings. Mary Emily Smart is found in the 1850 census in Chesterfield County living with Sylvester Pierce and his wife Adaline along with a man by the name of John Bellamy. Records of Blanford Cemetary in the City of Petersburg, Virginia lists the death of Amanda M. Smart on March 24, 1845. Amanda is the daughter of John Bellany and the wife of Henry Smart. She is 35 years old at the time and was born in Richmond VA. In May of the same year 1845, the two infant sons (3mos) of Amanda and Henry die. They were born in Petersburg, VA. The Pierce's owned Mattoax in the mid 1800's. Mary Emily Congdon owned it after the Civil War into the early 1900's. George and Mary Emily had the following children: George Gardner Congdon b: March 1871 in Chesterfield Co., VA d: Unknown Harriet Bellamy Congdon b: April 1875 in Chesterfield, VA d: Unknown Frank Carr Congdon b: March 03, 1877 in Chesterfield, Virginia d: 1933 in 555 High Street, Petersburg, Virginia James H.
