General Notes & Sources
==========================================================================================
Henry and Amy SMITH's family Group record notes by Sandra SMITH Gwilliam: Most of the
birth dates are assumptions.

Some records have his name as Henery SMITH, but the Revolutionary War documents
where he was paid for his services in helping General Thomas Sumter and his army when
Sumter was wounded and stayed at the SMITH home for three days have his name as Henry
SMITH.

His wife Amy's name is variously spelled Amy, Amelia, Emi, Amey and probably other
spellings. Her maiden name is not proven.

Henry SMITH:
a. Henry SMITH is listed in 1740 Importation of Henry SMITH, son of John SMITH as
one of "his own Charges from Ireland to Philadelphia & from thence into this
Colony"
[Orange County, Virginia Order Book II, Circuit Court of Orange County, Orange,
Virginia, 1740 p. 205]

b. 1753 will of John SMITH: . . . my Executors to Pay five Shillings Each to my Sons
Abraham, Henry, Daniel, and John

c. SMITH Cousins Four: Henry SMITH, b. 1727, m. Camey [Actually: Amy/ Amey/Amelia -
various spellings from land and various family records of Henry & Amy SMITH's
descendants.] . [SMITH Cousins Four compiled by Zula Wood Atwood, Frank L. Eddens, Jr,
Mildred SMITH Shumaker, & Guy R. SMITH.]

d. Will of John SMITH [son of Colonel John SMITH] P. 155 Wills--22d January, 1756:
to John SMITH, son of brother Daniel SMITH, the plantation on North River, Shanedoe,
which testator bought of Silas Hart; to brother Daniel; to brother Abraham SMITH; to
brother Henry SMITH. Executor, brother Daniel SMITH Proved, 18th August, 1756.

e. Numerous land records for Henry and Amy SMITH are in Mecklenburg and York Counties in
South Carolina.

No Widow Pensioned: No Children Pensioned: No Heirs Pensioned: No

Note from Laural Koons: DAR does have a line of descendants on file through his
sons Jonathan and Henry.

Sources for the children of Henry and Amy SMITH:

1. Abraham SMITH:
List of Baptisms 1740 - 1749 Tinkling Springs Church by Rev. John Craig, First
Pastor of Old Stone Church in Augusta County, Virginia". [Note from Wallace SMITH-
"I believe he was also the first pastor of the Tinkling Springs Church"]:

Written in the record: 2 October 1748: Henery SMITH, a child baptized named Abraham.

Abraham is listed in his father's will: And first to my eldest son Abraham I will
& Bequeath my second volum [sic] of Pools Anotations [sic] York County, South
Carolina Wills Vol. A-12 Page 65 Will No. 37. (FHL film: 229694)

Abraham's will was proven 14 Jun 1806 Union County, SC, Will Book A pp 97-101

2. John SMITH:
Baptisms 1740 - 1749 Tinkling Springs Church by Rev. John Craig, 27 April 1749:
Henery SMITH, a child baptized named John John is listed in his father, Henry SMITH's
will: "To my son John I Bequeath fifty Acres of Land... to my son Henry...together
with one half of the fishery in his Brother John's division" York County, South
Carolina Wills Vol. A-12 Page 65 Will No. 37. (FHL film: 229694)

Guy SMITH (President and Historian of the Col. John SMITH Society) sent a photocopy
of John SMITH's headstone. The birth date on it doesn't match the christening (baptism)
record of John, son of Henry SMITH in the Tinkling Springs Church records, but
sometimes children weren't christened right away.

The discrepancy in the dates in the records makes it seem that John is older than
Abraham SMITH, but in his father's will, (Henry SMITH), Abraham was named as the eldest
son.

3. Gideon SMITH:
Gideon SMITH's will is found in: Probate records of District 96 South Carolina will
proved Aug 23, 1783 which names his wife, his son and some of his brothers.

District. Proven August 23, 1783.

4. Elizabeth SMITH.
I have no notes for her or any sources of who gave me the information on her death
date. She could possibly have been the single daughter, or she could have been the
daughter who married the Jolley and had a son named Henry Jolley.

5. William SMITH:
He is listed in his father's will:
"To my son Jonathan I will my Negroe Wench named Rosse reserving at the same
time forty pounds to be paid by him to his Brother William in trade".

6. Daniel SMITH:
Lt. Daniel SMITH died from wounds received at the Battle at Stono, fought on 20
June 1779. Daniel died August 1779 at Old Barracks Hospital in Charleston, South
Carolina. In SMITH Wills-Deeds & Family Histories, Vol. I,, by Linda G. Cheek, it
states that Daniel had a son named John SMITH.

10. Sarah SMITH
