No match, I'm afraid. My John Smith came over from England around 1875; born 1839.

Did he always live in Henry Co.? I have 2 John Smith's one born about 1845 the son John Smith Jr about 1870. Both were in Greene Co. for a while but moved to other areas from time to time. John Smith Sr's father Aaron came from KY I believe he may have been born there too. I hate finding Smiths, the only thing worse is Gilmore (the most comon name in America) and I have both lines merging.
