The Smithfield, Ohio Funeral Home building was built in 1869 and is a registered historical landmark in Jefferson County. The funeral home was started in 1959 by Jim and Julia Nightingale. Jim retired in 1985 and passed away in 1993. Julia Nightingale lives in Arizona.

The main foyer of the funeral home and the first room on the left, after entering the home, still portray the original staircase and wood work from 1869 when the home was built.

Smithfield is a very caring community. The people of the Smithfield and surrounding communities have supported me and my family since we acquired the Smithfield Funeral Home. I am proud to be a part of Smithfield's caring community.
