The census taker reports that Lucy said she was divorced. She may have remarried after Green. The 1900 census shows that Green had died and Lucy Ann moved to Lowndes, Mississii to live with her brother, Augustus Smith. Lucy's Maiden name, is Smith! :) [S3] Ancestry.com, (Ancestry.com) (Reliability: 3), 28 Aug 107.

Info on Lillie and Green. Green's first wife Lucy reports that she was widowed in 1900, but later in 1920 she says she was divorced, This got me thinking.. what if Green was still alive! The census may have been in error. A Green Dismukes pops up in Okibbeha, MS which is near Artesia and areas where the Dismukes are prevalent. His new wife is 20 + years younger. View the 1900 census. The ages are close enough and the children are just the right age if they divorced around 1890 or so. As far as I can tell, Lucy never had anymore kids and only had one boy. Perhaps she couldn't have anymore. Notice that Lee (Leah?), his new wife, had mostly girls too until finally Green Lee was born. Hmmm.. Here's the 1910 census and 1920 Census where he aarently was living alone. His new wife died at a very young age. :( Wow.. Green is reported at 89 years of age on the 1930 census with his daughter Mary and his son-in-law.
