Dear Sandra, Do you know whether any of the Smiths of Fauquier Co., VA migrated rather early to either Mercer Co. or Garrard Co., Kentucky? Reason for my question: Some of the children of my John Kemper, Sr. of Dicks River area of Garrard Co. (Mercer Co. is just across the river--still requires a ferry in that area), married into a Smith family. Just curious, that's all! (A driving force--curiosity--for genealogists!) E.W.Wallace
