John Henry died 1929 leaving Emma Jane a widow until her death in 1944. Our understanding is that Sterling Price was her Great Uncle but we have no proof of any relationship. Heresy is that she was born and raised in or around Warren, Arkansas. Here again we have no concrete proof. We do know that she died Tippah County Mississippi.

Some of you might be interested and would like to join us next month for our seminar in Brandon, MS. http://www.rootsweb.com/~msgenweb/seminar/ Look forward to seeing you there. Melissa

Mine were in York Co, SC at that time, having moved there from VA in about 1787. I don't have a Sanford listed or Liza Jane POTTER, either. I have one Andrew Jackson SMITH but he was born in 1857, son of William M. "Cotton Billy" SMITH and Nancy Clarissa ROBINSON. William M. & Nancy C. were both born in SC and both died in GA. William M. was son of Miles (Myhill) SMITH & Judith UNKNOWN -- Miles (Myhill) was born 11 April 1769 in Brunswick Co, VA and died 11 Sep 1847 in York Co, SC. His parents were my 5th great grandfather Josiah and his first wife, Elizabeth COLLIER. I can't tell if there's any connection between our two SMITH families. -- Becky

He was born in 1830 and died in 1901. He was supposed to be a full blooded indian. Wallace was born in 1899 and died in 1982(?). I know that Wallace's dad was Sanford Smith and his mother was Liza Jane Potter (who was also supposed to have indian blood), but that is about all the info I have on this side of my family. Please let me know if this fits in with what you have. Thanks

I've got info back to Moses Pernell and his wife, Jane D. Walker (of Chester District, SC). It says they apparently died on the same day in 1843. Does any of this match up with what you've been able to find? I haven't been able to find Moses's dad. I've seen reference to a Cety Pernell, who is about the right age to be his father, as well as a Benjamin and William Pernell. Also in Chester District. But I haven't been able to nail that down. I'm also wondering where the original family came from--England, Ireland, Scotland? Anyway, if you have anything it'd be great to hear from you. Hope all is well your way. Best, Dave Pernell

Elizabeth COLLIER was his first wife. Josiah was b. in 1728 in Surry Co, VA and died 1818 in Camden District, York Co, SC. He had four children with Jemima and nine with Elizabeth. Some of his children eventually moved to Tippah Co, MS. One of Josiah & Jemima's sons was Wallace SMITH but I have no further information on him. A guesstimated birthdate for this Wallace SMITH would be ca. 1781. I'm wondering if he might possibly connect with your family since you mentioned a Wallace SMITH in Tippah Co, MS. I have quite a bit of information on my SMITH family and am happy to share it if you think there may be a connection or if it might be helpful in some way. -- Becky
