Many people from Madison County and the surrounding counties moved to Smith County, TX - my father in law for one, although he did not come directly here. It may be of some interest to you that the 1850 and 1860 Smith County, TX Federal Census is Online - up and running! We'd like to invite you to stop by and see "Our Christmas Gift to Smith County Researchers". Also you might like to check the Surname Register for your surnames.
