I descend from Malcolm, Abel & Martha, Thomas & Mary Ann Piper Smith, their son Luther & Millie Jones Smith then my grandparents Sterling & Bertha Dickens Smith. I don't have the Macon Co. Book but I did know that Malcolm was a preacher from the History of Middle Tn. Baptists which has an article about Malcolm as well as Elder E.L. Smith another son of Abel & Martha. In the Malcolm's estate sale Allen Smith bought a Hymn Book, John Smith a Bible and there were also other books that sold. There is a picture of Thomas & Mary Ann on the Smith Co. site and I met their "grandson" in his 80's about 2 years ago in Lafayette, Tn. He has the original picture. Keep me posted on any new info.

Shirley, My father always told me that he was kin to Sterling Smith, but did't say how. Now I see how, Daddy was a descendent of Abel through Joanna Elizabeth, and Sterling through her brother Thomas. They were cousins several times removed. I knew your grandfather. You said that John Smith bought a Bible at Malcolm's estate sale. I have a John H. Smith as Abel's Grandson. Who was the man you saw in Lafayette who was a grandson of Thomas and Mary. I might know him. This is what the history book has about Malcolm Smith. An arm was extended from East Fork of Goose Creek Church (now Hillsdale) In 1814. Liberty Chruch was organized on November 2, 1822 into an independent church by Elders John Wiseman, Hiram Casey, William Roark, and Malcolm Smith. the church was doubtless gathered through the ministry of Elder Malcolm Smith, Who became her first pastor and served until his death in 1827. The first three pastors were Elder Malcolm Smith, 1822-1827, Elder Daniel Smith 1830-1857, Elder D. W. Smith 1857-1879.
