At Willie Mae Spiller’s funeral a story was told that Charles William Smith was not Claude Neil Smith’s father, even though those two were married at the time. This story was told by a older man attending the funeral as though it was common knowledge. Supposedly the timing was not correct; that Charles William Smith was working in Washington DC at the probable time of conception and Willie Mae Spiller was living with his family in Memphis. The story went that the probability was the real father was Dink Smith, one of Charles William Smith’s brothers. This was the most plainly stated version of a family story that had been hinted at several times.
