Husband: William M SMYTH, b. ABT 1794, Virginia
All info on William Smyth and his sons and two wives from Bible including birthdates and places.Second wife shows up on 1860 Census. Found on the 1850 Census in Casey County Kentucky with his wife Francis , three sons Robert, Wm, Henry and probably William's sister a spinster Mary A. Smith. Per the Bible this man had no daughters only sons so she would not be their daughter , must be a sister or possibly a cousin or niece. Listed under Smith spelling on both census. rather than the correct german spelling of Smyth. Also in an article in in 1911 Wyandotte County History of Wyandotte County it asserts that this man was the man for whom Smyth County Virginia was named. That is incorrect, as the County was named for Alexander Smyth a war hero and an Irishman. The Smyth/ Williams lineage is German on Robert C Smyths side and Scottish on Nancy Wallace Williams. It relates that correctly in the article.
