Her husband died on the day that Lee surrendered to Grant on April 9, 1865. Her husband had died from wounds he received while fighting in the 3rd Iowa Cavalry during the Civil War. Charity would raise her children on her own and did not remarry. Obituary from the Columbus Journal, Columbus, Nebraska, October 21, 1903: Mrs. Charity Smith, for many years a resident of Columbus, but the past thirteen years spending most of her time with relatives elsewhere, died Friday night at the home of her daughter, Mrs. F.A.M. Stewart of Cheyenne, Wyoming, after an illness of only about two weeks. About three months ago she underwent an operation for a cancer on the leg, from which she never fully recovered. Mrs. Smith was born in Ohio seventy-three years ago, moving to Iowa at an early age with her husband, who afterwards served in the third Iowa cavalry during the civil war, and who died from the effects of wounds on the same day that President Lincoln passed away. Mrs. Smith moved to Omaha in 1868, and after three years residence there came to Columbus where she resided until about thirteen years ago. Mrs. Smith was a woman of strong personality, and possessed a mind capable of coping with any difficulties which come to the women who are left with the care of a family of children. She was a faithful member of the Methodist church. The deceased leaves two sons, David, of Cheyenne, and Frank of Idaho, and three daughters, Mrs. Stewart of Cheyenne, Mrs. McDermott of Rock River, Wyoming, and Mrs. H. H. Hewitt of Bellwood, Nebraska. The remains were brought to Columbus Monday morning, David and Mrs. Stewart accompanying the body here, and funeral services were held Monday afternoon in the Methodist church, after which the body was interred in the Columbus cemetery. Besides the relatives from Cheyenne who came with the remains, Mrs. Hewitt of Bellwood, Mrs. Frances Glynn of Omaha and Miss Ruby Smith, daughter of D. Smith, who has been visiting in Omaha, were all here to attend the funeral.
