                                           John Greenarch of Clinton County, Kentucky     John Alvis Smith (1873- 1941) married Mary E. "Molly" Tarter in 1893 in Pulaski Co., Kentucky.  I was cleaning up my data on this half great uncle of my mine when I stumbled on a rather incredible story.                                                                            Molly had a sister named Margaret.  In October 1891, Margaret married a man named John Greenarch.  I was surprised to see on the marriage bond that a 23 year old young man was embarking on his third marriage. It was worth looking into.   J ohn Greenarch Appears in Clinton Co., KY 1860 as a 1 month...
