Comments: Earl Davis Smith, child number 6 of this family, wrote a family history "Forebears & Kin of John Tyson Smith, Sr. and Nancy Melvina Skaggs." All Smith researchers are indebited to Earl for writing the history of the four Smith brothers in Texas. I would love to hear from descendants of this family.

Sources: Much of the information on this family can be found in Earl Davis Smith's book "Forebears & Kin of John Tyson Smith, Sr. and Nancy Melvina Skaggs."
