Smith was born in Burke County.My grandfather was Dixon Fred Smith b. 1907 in, I believe, Burke County. My great grandfather, Noah Anderson Smith b. ca 1874, d. approx 1928. I put away all my notes months ago and gave up on this crowd, so I'm going on memory here! Noah Anderson Smith married Laura Cook, and both are buried at St. Paul Baptist Church in Casar, Cleveland County, NC. Anderson Smith's death certificate lists his parents as John Smith and Rebecca Davis. I do know that John and Rebecca were never married. In the 1880 Cleveland County Census, I find Jno. H. Smith 28 Nancy 32 and Anderson Davis 7 in House #200. Any connection?
