Born May 9, 1916, in Knoxville, he was the son of Clayton and Bobbie Smith Herron. Mr. Herron attended the old Knoxville High School and the University of Tennessee. While in high school, he was a cheerleader, editor of the Blue and White school paper and a member of the track team. After high school, Mr. Herron was employed by Tennessee Valley Authority and the Oak Ridge Y-12 Plant, before forming his insurance agency Herron Insurance in 1950. In 1954, he merged with Joe Connell and formed what is known as Herron-Connell Insurance Agency. He and his wife, Beatrice McLaughlin Herron, were united in marriage March 8, 1940, and were married 57 years at the time of her death on May 15, 1997. They came to Oak Ridge in 1943 and he was a member of First United Methodist Church, where he taught Sunday School for 10 years. He later became a member of Calvary Baptist Church, where he was a member at the time of his death. He enjoyed golfing, was a past chairman of the American Red Cross in Oak Ridge, served on the board of the Oak Ridge Hospital of the Methodist Church, a member of the Oak Ridge Rotary Club and co-founder of the Oak Ridge Boy's Club.

She was a member of Ridgewood United Methodist Church, the Green Mountain Club, the Appalachian Mountain Club, the Women's College Club of Ridgewood, the 1902 Reading Club of Ridgewood, and a Gray Lady volunteer at the Veterans Hospital in Waltham, Mass. According to her family, Mrs. Krieg had a great love for nature, books and her family. A highlight of early childhood was galloping on her horse through the back streets of Newark at dusk smelling the honeysuckle, her family said. In high school, she won the city wide essay competition and later rounded Cape Horn in a storm, viewing the scene from the ships topmost crows' nest. In the early 1920s, she was the first woman to summit Mount Ranier in early spring, a feat that required 24 hours of continuous climbing and descending since shelters were buried in up to 20 to 30 feet of snow and ice. Later years included ice skating, snow shoeing and a last trip to the summit of Mount Katadin in Maine at age 65. Nineteenth century poetry was a special joy, her family said.

Helen, Thank you for the information on George W. Smith. I think some of the information is incorrect. I believe George W. Smith's 1st wife was Julia Ann Smith, a daughter of Sterling Robert Smith and his 1st wife, whose name is unknown. Sterling Robert Smith was the son of Robert Smith and Sarah Moss. Sterling Robert Smith married 2nd to Margaret (Leinart) Queener. I believe that is where the Queener comes into this family. Does anyone know if there is any proof that George W. Smith's wife, Louisa was a Tiller? I thought she was a Parrott. Thanks, Paul History is just one damn thing after another!
