There are no people named Smillie in Illinois in the index to the 1870 census I subscribe to. This was the closest in Illinois: 1870 United States Federal Census > Illinois > Warren > Monmouth Smiley, John M., 37, Penn ----, Sarah J., 30, Ill ----, Sophina, 13, Ill (and the rest) ----, Ann E., 10 ----, Nellie M., 2 And Galveston, Cass, Indiana; Roll: M593_302; Page: 119; Image: 239. Smiley, James, 72, Scotland ----, Martha, 64, "" ----, Thomas, 23, Canada (next household) Smiley, John, 40, Canada ----, Mary A., 27, Ohio ----, Martha E, 7, Ill ----, Nellie M, 3, Ill ----, James, 3/12ths, Ind This might be them in 1880, if 1) John died 2) Martha goes by Mattie 3) Nellie goes by Nella 4) Mary A in 1870 is really Mary Ellen, and she switched to "Ellen" for 1880 to thrown her descendants off the track. 5) James b. 1870 died or was farmed out. Look at the father's BP, mother's BP.

Source Information: Census Place Center, Howard, Indiana The only Smillie I could find in the 1880 census with a birth date close to Nellie's is from Oshkosh, Wisconsin. This person is "Nettie A. Smillie" The family is: Robert Smillie 50 Jane L. Smillie 49 Henry Smillie 28 Maggie Smillie 26 Jennie A. T. Smillie 23 Robert W. Smillie 20 Jennie L. Smillie 17 Nettie A. Smillie 14 Cathrine N. Smillie 11 Emma R. Smillie 8 Minnie B. Smillie 3 Henry Smillie 72 This family is also found in the 1870 census for Oshkosh (of course younger children weren't there) for one thing her name would not be smiley if her sons name is unless she she had him out of wed lock.
