The first three generations were proposed by Winfred Boadus Smith, in
the Smith chapter of Davis Stockton of Virginia, 1972, of which he was
junior author, with his sister, Leona Irene Smith Johnson, the senior
author. She had worked on the family for 40 years. He joined in the
research in the last 10 years. The connection of the first two with
the third needs more research and verification. Many more records are
available now than they had then. For my direct line, I have
documentation. I have not researched those not of my direct line
which were furnished by others. They are to be considered as listed as
furnishing clues for research purposes only.
