Herbn, Sherry and SC-L Members, I'm probably opening up Pandora's Box...considering this is SMITH ...but would this line of SMITH include a John Jackson SMITH?? Circa "Province of Carolina"...and ranging from 1740's-1790's. The reason that I ask is because on my father's lines, we have a brickwall that....simply due to the commonality of the name SMITH, I haven't been doing any research on.....yet. What I have is simply a short outline: John Jackson SMITH, b. circa 1730-1740, location unk m. ______________ CH: unknown number son: John Jackson SMITH "Jr", b. 1767-68, "Province of SC" m. circa 1790, Martha "Patsy" HAGGARD d/o Samuel HAGGARD Sr m. Nancy HIX CH: 1. Sarah SMITH, b. 1793 [NC?], m. John HAGGARD 2. Anna SMITH, b. 1797 GA, m. Alfred HAGGARD 3. Mary "Polly" SMITH, b. 1801 GA, m. James C. GREEN 4. unk child, b. abt 1804 GA, m. ____________ 5. Josiah SMITH, b. 1807 GA, m. Nancy ROBERTS 6. Rebecca SMITH, b. 1809 TN, m. Zephaniah ROBERTS, in TN 7. Hannah SMITH, b. 1811 TN, m. Joseph ROBERTS 8. Malinda SMITH, b. 1812 TN, William ROBERTS 9. John Jackson SMITH III, b. 1813 TN, m. Jane ROBERTS My line of descent from John Jackson SMITH "Jr", is his daughter, Mary "Polly" SMITH m. James C. GREEN...who did buck the tide of marrying one of her cousins...but moved to GA and then TN with along with all the rest. Anyone with a clue or two on this John Jackson SMITH Sr.????

Guyton Smith, Arron Smith and the Craig Family were from the Pendleton, SC area of what is now Anderson Co., SC beginning latter part of 1790s and onward. Some of their families still live in this same area. ------------------------ Herb, Does your DBJ Craig have any connection to a David Craig or a Baverd Craig (who may or may not be the same person)? I have both names on documents, but don't know if it is two different people or not. Could the initials stand for David Baverd ??? Craig? This David/Baverd Craig was somehow connected to my Barnett family in Pendleton District during the 1810-approx. 1815 period and then in Alabama from approx. 1815-1825. Baverd Craig was one of the persons who received money from the estate settlement of James Barnett in Alabama approx. 1825. It appears that the Craigs and Barnetts lived near each other in SC and AL and possibly migrated together. That's about all I know about him, as he and my Barnetts have been very hard to track. James Barnett, who was in Pendleton Dist. about 1790 until the family migrated to AL Territory approx. 1813-15, is my brick wall.
