While we are on cemeteries, does anyone know where John Foster is buried. He died apparently Jan 26, 1837, at the age of 80 according to a copied notation from the Woodville Republican, Feb. 18, 1837. He had returned from Fort Bend Co.,Texas to Woodville where he lived out his remaining years with his daughter Hettie B. (Foster) Mayes, and son-in-law Major Francis S. Mayes. We would also like to find the burial site of Frances Prestwood Smith and Zachariah Smith. they were born 1734 and 1741 respectively, but we do not have death dates. They moved from Adams Co. to Wilkinson Co. in the late 1780 to early 1790's with most of his 12 living children. the latter married into the Hunter, Kimbrel, Lovelace, Phipps, Thompson, Goodby and Bonner families as well as 3 daughters marrying Fosters.

I don't have a death date but Zachariah Smith's will was filed for probate the 13 Dec 1831. >From Mrs. Wiese's book on the Woodville Republican, issue dated 27 Sept 1823, there is a note that Capt Prestwood Smith was killed by A. M. Wilson, leaving a wife and large family of children. Also, from another book on Newspaper obits, also from the Woodville Republican: Died July 30th 1835, at her residence on Buffaloe, in this county, in the 49th year of her age, Mrs. SARAH SMITH, consort of the late PRESTWOOD SMITH There seem to be several Prestwood Smiths.

Hi Nan Sorry to be so late jumping in here but I just got home. I am always excited to see Zachariah Smith family information show up. According to the book THE ORDER OF THE FIRST FAMILIES OF MISSISSIPPI 1699-1817. ed. Pg. 72. Zachariah Smith died in 1812 and the records I have abstracted from the courthouse in Woodville seem to bear that out. The Conveyance records show a group of bequests to his grand children and great grand children that began to be recorded in starting the 4 November 1812. They had been written at various dates in the preceding months of that year with the last being done the 1 November 1812. I expect he died shortly after that date. Conveyance records Book A pg. 295. Recorded 4 November 1812. Zacariah Smith to Francis Ann Lovelace his grand daughter a Negro girl Phebe. Done 29 Aug. 1812. Signed Zachariah Smith. Witnessed Jno Wall, W. Hunter. Book A pg. 296. Recorded 4 November 1812. Zachariah Smith to Nancy D. Foster a Negro girl Sary with yellowish complexion, 13 years old. Done 9 October 1812. Signed Zachariah Smith. Witnesses Jno Wall, W. H. Hunter. Book A. pg. 300. recorded 20 November 1812. Zachariah Smith to granddaughter Barsheba Hetty Foster, a Negro girl Louisa. Done 28 Aug. 1812. Signed Zachariah Smith. Witnesses Randolph Foster and Moses A Foster. Recorded 20 November 1812. Zachariah Smith to Polly Eleanor Foster, his granddaughter, a Negro girl Nancy. Done 28 Aug. 1812. Signed Zachariah Smith. Witnesses Randolph Foster and Moses Foster. Book A, pg. 301. recorded 20 November 1812 Zachariah Smith to his grandson Thomas Kelsey 2 plow horses with all utensils for husbandry, Smith and Working tools, all household and kitchen furniture, clock and yoke of oxen, a sorrell horse, 1/4 of present crop, all stock of hogs, and all whiskey in storage. Done 28 August 1812. signed Zachariah Smith. Witness Randolph Foster. Book A, pg. 307. recorded 5 Jan. 1813 Zachariah Smith to Adolphus Fredrick Smith in Parish of Attakapas for $500 land on Thompsons Creek in New Felicianna. Spanish Grant to Felix Barnard. When granted bounded on north by Philip Alston, on south by Dr. Joga Raouel, bought from Edward Gibbens by Zachariah Smith. 236 1/2 arpents. Done 28 July 1812. Signed Zachariah Smith. Witnesses: John Wall and Peter Smith. Book A, pg. 309. recorded 5 Jan. 1813. Zachariah Smith to Eliza Ann Wilkinson his great grand daughter 4 cows and a chestnut sorrell mare. Done 1 Nov. 1812. signed Zachariah Smith. Witnesses: John Wall, Peter Smith. Book A, pg. 310. recorded 5 Jan. 1813. Zachariah Smith to William Henry Smith his grandson a Negro boy Jerry. Done 28 July 1812. Signed Zachariah Smith (his mark this time, the rest have been signatures). Witnesses: John Wall and Peter Smith. His son Peter Smith is made administrator of his estate in January of 1813 as he died intestate. He had already taken care of his bequests by deed in the preceding months so there was only a small amount of last details for Peter to settle. INVENTORY AND ACCOUNTS BOOKS (These are housed in the basement) Vol. 1, pg. 262. Jan. 1813. Peter Smith made administrator of Zachariah Smith Sen. estate as he died intestate. Vol. 2 pg. 376. July 1821. Peter Smith, administrator of Zacheriah Smith Sen. dec. states he has only $186 belonging to the estate and bills amounting to $193. Vol. 3 pg. 113. Debts of Zachariah Smith estate as of 13 Feb. 1813. North Evans $85.91, $5.50,$51.41 Arron Kirkland $18 E.H. Marselis $20.24 Jas. Wilson $4.86 John Threkeld $28.00 total $193.70 Property of Estate available to Peter Smith Administrator. 1 horse $76 Neat processed 4 bales of cotton $189.22 cotton $20.46 Property brought $186.28 pg. 261. Bond of Peter Smith as administrator with Zachariah Smith and Thomas Lovelace as securities. The dates and information in not filled in on the bond. But it is obviously the bond for Peter to be administrator of his fathers estate. (This appears to be the final accounting of Zachariahs estate.) I believe Francis Prestwood Smith had already died in 1809, though First Families says she died 1820-24. In the first place if she had still been alive at the time of Zachariah's death (1812) she would have been provided for in his estate or the deeds prior to his death. She was not. The last record on which she signed was Conveyance Book A, pg. 90. recorded 10 October 1808. Made 2 March 1808. Zachariah Smith Sr. and Francis his wife to John Foster and Mary his wife and Claiborne and William Zachariah Foster, their sons for $3,500 a tract of land on Blumart Creek 500 acres. Adjacent Zachariah Smith Jr. on north, David Ogden on south, William Ogden on east. signed Zachariah Smith Sr. and Frances Smith. Wit. Thomas Foster and William Hunter. Book A, pg. 135. Recorded 4 January 1810 made 16 September 1809 Zachariah Smith Sr. and Frances his wife to Thomas Kelsey for $1000 a tract of land on Buffalo Creek 174 acres. A Spanish grant of 1788. Signed Zachariah Smith. Frances did not sign. Wit. Joshua Buchammer Bateman, John Foster. Though the last record says Zachariah and wife and was actually done September 1809 no signature is shown on the record at the courthouse. While most of the of the other property he deeded to his grandchildren were not real estate and did not require her signature the property in Feliciana Parish that he deeded to his grandson Adolphus Fredrick Smith would probably have carried her signature had she been living. As to where they are buried I expect both are buried on the family plantation as was the custom of the time. So unless someone in the family can give me proof that she went to live with one of the family (I love to get those kinds of stories from families as they are the only ones that can give us that kind of information) until her death because she needed special care I will leave their dates of death at 1812 for him and 1809 for her. Thanks!

William Duglas Lum and William Duglas Lum Jr are the members listed as descended from Zachariah with membership #'s 214 and #398. Have you ever seen the Zachariah Smith Bible? That is supposed to be where the dates on this family came from. It was supposed to have been submitted to First Families as proof of this line. William M. Smith (son of Zachariah) had a son John Moses Smith who married Nancy Ann Smith daughter of James Smith (Son of Zachariah) m1. Sarah Phipps. John and Nancy Ann had a daughter Roseanna Smith who m. a Peter Smith on the Louisiana Coast ca. 1845. So I got a double dose of Zachariah's sons and a possibility of a third. Thanks!

I looked again at my membership list and it shows Doug as on James Foster. Of course with Bill deceased, I do not know about his line. I have most all the material Bill had as we worked together on the Foster genealogy and annual reunion. However, Jackie recently found a posting on the net for someone in LA who claimed to have the Bible. I will have to go back through her emails to see what she turned up when she randomly called the only person by the last name in that town.

The only member in First Families on Zachariah to my knowledge was Winnie Cowgill. I will have to Email Ralph to see if he had any supporting data for the death dates. I just wonder why, since at the base of the tree, Zachariah and Frances birth dates are given and their marriage date, but no death dates. The notation at the side of the base states that the tree was done as a wedding gift for Sinai upon her marriage to Erastus Lum. It says 1820, but my record shows they married Jan 1821.
