Double Connection

Isaac J Smith's last child with his 2nd wife Mary was Margaret Ann and she too had a small family which doubled back to the Vincent clan via her son's marriage.

Margaret married William Henry Lasher, the son of Robert W Lasher & Jane A Miller and they had one son Willard Smith Lasher. 

Willard married Mary Etta Hayner who was the daughter of Silas Hayner & Elvira M Althouse and they had no children so the family ends here.
