  2. No, she wasn't. Her father William Smith, our third great grandfather was born in Georgia and his father, William Smith Sr, our forth Great grandfather was born in England.
    Mary Irene was born in Mississippi.

  5. Maribeth,
    Sorry, But the Oldest William Smith in our family records is
    William Alford "Billy" Smith born 1816. Do you have any info on wifes name or children? Perhaps, if your William is in our tree his full name might make a difference. If I can help, please let me know.

  6. Betty,
    Thanks for your offer of help.
    My William Smith's wife was an Alexander. Daughter of Jesse Alexander 1720-1803.Williams's children were Sarah Smith b?d?, Archer(Archibald) Smith b. 1796 SC, Jesse A. Smith b. 1799 NC in 1883 living in Owen county KY, Travis Archie Smith b. 1804 NC in Owen KY in 1850 and Worthville, Carroll county KY 1860 census, and William A. Smith b. 1806 Scott county, Kentucky and found in the 1850 Owen county KY census.
    That is the immediate family of my William Smith. Any hints or matches?
    My other SMITH line is from Travis Smith's wife Margaret Johnson b. 1811 Scott county KY whose Mother was Sarah Smith b.1786 KY, daughter of Berryman Smith b. abt. 1751 and d. 1839 Indiana.
    Two converging SMITH lines. What fun!
    Thanks for taking the time.

  8. Betty,
    I've got to look around the house and see if it is still there or if Mom gave it to one of my Uncle's but at one time she had Momma Harrigill's (Mary Lou Zimmerman's Mom, and my Great Grandmother) bible, which may have some old dates documented in it, as that is where the older people used to document everything about birth's, marriages, etc. I am on facebook or my email is xxxxxxxxx. I live in Natchez.
