Surnames: SMITH Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/xAB.2ACI/2132.1.1 Message Board Post: The John Smith I am looking for would have been born in Virginia about 1775; was in Garrard County before 1800; and died in Garrard County between 1850 and 1860. I do not know who his parents were or if he had siblings, so I can not tell whether he is the John B. that you have as the brother of your Jerimah/son of your Scarlet. However, I do know that there were two John Smiths of approximately the same age in Garrard County for several decades. Do you have any information as to when your John B. died? The wife of the John Smith I am looking for was named Frances/Francis, but I do not know her maiden name. Can you tell if any of this tracks with your John B. Smith?
