Posted on: Hampshire Co. Ma Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ma/Hampshire?read=390 Surname: SMITH, MAGRANNIS, MOODY, NASH ------------------------- My Smith family descended from Lt. Samuel Smith who arrived in America in 1634 from England. My grandfather was Frank Herbert Smith who was born in South Hadley( I think)about 1864-65. His parents were Edward Lowell Smith and Adeline Magrannis ( or Magranis). They had 9 children. I am trying to find the names of these children. I do know that one brother was Leonard Nelson Smith b. 1879. He was superintendant of the Pearl River Paper Mill in South Hadley. I also want to learn where Frank was born. Also it would be great to learn more about this family in terms of occupation, community involvement, and church affiliation. I have " History of Hadley, Mass." by Judd with the "Family Genealogies" by Boltood included in the book. All of my ancestors are in this book. But I need information about Adeline and Edward and their children. Adeline and Edward were married at the First Congregational Church in South Hadley( letter from David Morrell). Mrs Cronin at the South Hadley Historical Society provided me with the lineage back to 1634. I wrote back asking for more information. She responded and referred me to the book that I mentioned above. Edward Lowell Smiths mothers maiden name was Harriet MOODY. His grandmothers maiden name was Phoebe NASH. I live in Louisiana and therefore do not have access to the records in South Hadley. Please email me at Gbello5353@aol.com Thank you so much.
