He was a Republican. BiographyHe was born on August 27, 1884 in Gayville in the Dakota Territory to Danish immigrants Margaret (née Larsen) and Peter Smith.[1][2] Smith moved to Wyoming in 1907 and subsequently was elected to the Wyoming House of Representatives for the Fifteenth State Legislature. He lived in Crook County. He lost the 1942 election to Lester Hunt, a Democrat. In 1942, Smith and two partners bought Ranch A in Crook County, from the estate of Moses Annenberg; it is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. He died on July 5, 1976 in Spearfish, South Dakota. Smith's granddaughter Connie Smith, 10 years old, disappeared in Salisbury, Connecticut while attending summer camp in 1952. He and his son, Connie's father, exhausted all resources trying to find her, but to no avail. She has never been found.[3] {{Portal|Biography}}References1. ^{{citation |url= https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QKDD-9VJK |title= South Dakota, Department of Health, Index to Births 1843-1914 and Marriages 1950-2016 |website= FamilySearch |accessdate=April 23, 2018 }} 2. ^{{citation |url= https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MMR9-GK5 |title= United States Census, 1900 |website= FamilySearch |accessdate=April 23, 2018 }} 3. ^{{cite book | last =Dooling | first =Michael C. | authorlink = | title =Clueless in New England: The Unsolved Disappearances of Paula Welden, Connie Smith & Katherine Hull | publisher =Carrollton Press | series = | volume = | edition = | date =2010 | location = | pages = | language = | url =https://books.google.com/books?id=MnJRnwEACAAJ&dq=disappearance+of+connie+smith&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjRjKL0tLbJAhWUR4gKHbQKBWIQ6AEIGzAA | doi = | id = | isbn =9780962742439 | mr = | zbl = | jfm = }}
