I use to think these two fella were sons of a Geo Smither d 1756 Lancaster Co Va....but now on 2nd thought....they both were born [the ones who are sons of above Geo] around 1704, 1706...so unless they apprenticed men back then that age.....now I dont think they are the same fellas I thought. Anyone know much on apprenticeship in regards to age in Va around the time these fellas were?
