Pat, relative to the Smith family, this would be my maternal grandmother's line as she was a Smith (youngest daughter of 4 children) born to Samuel Fair and Cynthia Ann (Wood) Smith. Samuel's parents are buried at St. Paul's Episcopal Churchyard and I have a picture of their stone. Cynthia Ann's parents are buried at Rye in the Lewis Family plot at Greenwood Union and I believe their religious faith was Christ's Church Cynthia Ann's great grandparents and one son came from Carmarthenshire, South Wales, Great Britain. One more thing that strikes a bell grandma remarked one time that her family was not Catholic but her daughter, my mother converted to the RC when she married in 1946. She was a non practicing Methodist and they needed to get special permission for the marriage of my dad to her. So I suspect the David Smith and Margaret Young came to the USA from Northern Ireland they married in New York. A daughter named Frances E. I believe is the oldest followed by Jane, Henry, David, Samuel Fair, and Sarah. I researched the Young family years ago and found that Margaret Young Smith had a sister named Sarah Young who married Andrew Barr and herr mother Margaret (Fair) Young lived with the younger sister in New York City 1860 and Eastchester in 1870. Their mother was born about 1791. She was a widow when I found her and someone had been working on that line thought that Margaret Fair was the daughter of John Fair and Jane Dempsey but I could not prove that for myself. The name Fair shows up in this family a lot as does the name Jane. > [email protected]> wrote: > According to the 1870 US Census: David I.
