It just occurred to me that I have gone on the premise that all of the 1st and 2nd generation offspring of Z & F traveled with them from N.C.- Adams Co.-Wilkinson Co. Perhaps some were born and remained in Anson County or elsewere. Sherry, as to the first 5 children of William, have you checked Adams Co. records. Moses Bonner had a tract of land bordering our Widow Mary Foster here on St. Catherine Creek which was also very near the tract Zachariah purchased from Wm Penrice in 1783 and later sold to James Foster before removing to Wilkinson Co. You might also wonder, was there an epidemic in between the dates of birth of these children. So many children died in these epidemics. At least Barbara can account for Wm Martin Smith. I have a copy of some research done by Carolyn Brendt of Birmingham, AL She is a descendant of Capt Peter Smith through his daughter Frances Matilda. Are any of you familiar with this? Nan
