Hello Listers: Is anyone looking for information on Philip Smith, Revolutionary War veteran of Hunterdon CO, NJ who settled for a time in Culpeper? His wife of Teresa Herrin, was probably related to the Herrins of Brandy Station. Philip and Teresa had several children, one of whom was Eliza who married a Wharton in 1795. Another was George W. Smith who married Maria Walden Gayle of Caroline CO and made his home in Culpeper until he moved, in his old age, to live with dau Mary Smith Dunn in Gordonsville. George died in 1895 and is buried at Maplewood. Bwtween 1810 and 1829 Rev. War veteran Philip Smith and wife Teresa, along with several of their children moved first to Frederick CO, VA, then began a migration that took them to Trigg CO, KY where they settled. Philip died in 1833 in Trigg CO.,KY. Names associated with George Smith's family are Parr, Kennedy, Hansborough, Jennings, and Dunn. I have his pension application which was supported by testimony from a Jonathan Smith, also a Rev. War veteran of Hunterdon, NJ, also known to have been in VA before his migration to Todd CO, KY, an adjoining county to Trigg CO. I have information to exchange on both Philip and Jonathan if anyone else is working on either line. It is my opinion they are related but I don't have proof of that. Eldred W. Melton

Dear Mr. Melton, What are some of the Hansbrough names connected to this Smith family. I descend from two different William and two different Peter Hansbroughs from Culpeper Co. Virginia. Cathy S.
