Floyd Edson McDonald did not marry Alice Fostina Smith (Smith-27226) born 6 Jul 1898 at Strong, Maine, d. 11 Jan 1973 at Farmington, Maine. I created a profile for the Alice Smith (Smith-283819) that he did marry, based on her Find a Grave memorial # 61890742 that is attached to his Find a Grave memorial # 6190785, both located at Keystone Cemetery, Keystone South Dakota. Her memorial states she was born in South Dakota on 20 Jun 1899 and died there on 22 Jun 1939. There are a number of source documents that can be found on his Family Search profile, as well as for his parents and siblings.
