Hi! My proble is sorting out SMITHs---especially before the 1850 census---and even after!!! I'm looking for a William SMITH---do you know why your William DEMENT has the middle name of SMITH? Have you ever wondered and tried to research the reason? Must have been a SMITH there somewhere. The William SMITH I am looking for was related some way toTownley SMITH of Scioto Co, OH. Townley had brothers Joel , John D., sisters Rebecca Mikal (unmarried), Sarah (Hogan), Winifred (Calvert), and possibly other siblings. Most came to Scioto Co. in early 1820s. Deeds, and estate papers mention a William SMITH also. He was either a son or nephew of Townley SMITH. Townley b. around 1782 in Prince William Co., VA., son of Peter SMITH and Elizabeth. Townley SMITH came to Scioto Co in 1817 from Stafford Co, VA. Could one of the William SMITHs be the father of Angeline (SMITH) EDWARDS, born 1815 in VA., , who married Jesse B. EDWARDS in Scioto Co in 1850? (She was the widow of Isaac MCLAUGHLIN and John FREEMAN before marrying Jesse. ) Angeline and Jesse B. named a son William. (Jesse B. was the grandson of Rev War veteran Jesse EDWARDS Sr. of Adams & Scioto Cos. ) Many many SMITH families and lots of William SMITHs in Adams and Scioto Co in the period 1815-on. How can they be sorted out, especially before the 1850 census??? Any info on William SMITH family connections will be appreciated.

After reading your "post" about the Demint's in Adams Co. ---I checked my notebook for your names. William son of Andrew and Hannah is a good "possibility" for your William born in 1861. Our ancestor was William Smith Dement/Demint and his wife Malinda (Thornburg) who also lived in Jefferson Twp. but removed to Scioto Co., Ohio. Hope this helps.

It started in 1935, not 1930, but it was still the doing of that lousy democrat, Franklin Roosevelt. Jim Hartline

Soc Sec started in 1930, Roosevelt's doing.

Thanks for the link. I was able to find some information about my relatives there. However in poking around the site, I found that its creator Vern Paul is no longer supporting the pages on angelfire. His new URL is http://members.xoom.com/Sciotocounty/
