1850 Lauderdale Co, TN: Robert C. West, daughter Frances E is Ellen F-?

Hi,
I'm looking for any information on Ellen F. West, b.about 1839 in TN. She married Peyton C. Smith, son of Peyton Randolph Smith, in Lauderdale Co in 1855. She died in Tipton Co, TN in 1875. Peyton C & Ellen F are my gg-grandparents
I believe she may be the daughter of Robert C. West, b. in VA. The 1850 Lauderdale Co, TN, census lists a daughter, Frances E West, that is the same age as Ellen. I THink it may be her, that F is for Frances- but I don't know for sure- no evidence. She is on the 1860 Carroll Parrish, LA census with her husband Peyton C. Smith, & 2yo son, Peyton Jr- and then she is not to be found! I got her date & place of death from a Smith cousin.
Peyton & Ellen had 2 children listed by initials on the 1880 Tipton Co, TN census, whose names I have not been able to find. The daughter is E.T. Smith, b.1870 in TN. I suspect that, being the only girl, she may have been named after her mother- but that's another guess!
Any information on Ellen F West, Robert C West, or any of his other family would be greatly appreciated! I read an old posting from someone who said Robert C. Smith's parents were William West & Elizbeth Stone of VA.
ThankS- Jan
