This is what I have on John and Mary......and no twins Isaac & John....so does anyone have info on who Isaac and John are? Seems Isaac went to Tx....I have seen some info on Smathers in Red River Tx. Now I cant remember whose had that line...Nena 7th child of Wm II/Anna Catharina -John Smither[aka SMATHERS] b Dec 17 1781 d 1825 NC at 44y + 1803 MARY AGNER d 1868 NC 92y NOTE:Patton's genealogical record states that John Smathers b Dec 17 1781, and married Mary Agner 1803. Mary Agner Smathers lived many years after her husband, John, died. Mary never learned to speak English. NOTE:The generations of John and Mary Agner Smathers extend far and wide. J Bat Smathers served as attorney for the Champion Fibre Company, the town of Canton Carolina Power and Light Company, the Suncrest Lumber Co, the Champion Bank and Trust Company of Canton and a number of other corp. Among Mary Agner Smathers' prized possessions was a book written 1795 in German, containing songs, prayers and sermons by Martin Luther, Patton said. That book is still in the possession of Janice Smathers and her bro Julian. "An inscription on the fly leaf of this old volume, with its brittle paper and ink faded almost beyond deciphering, has preserved the key which opens a door into past history of the Smathers family before its first members came across the Blue Ridge to Pigeon River," Patton wrote. "There, in German script, appears the record, which translated reads: Johannes Smetter was born the 17th Dec 1781."
