JOHN SMYTH/SMITH & MATHILDA MCCABE SMYTH/SMITH.
John Smith & Mathilda McCabe-Smith/Smyth= from County Cavan IRELAND (Ulster). They emigrated to Ontario,Drummond in 1823,thenThey emigrated to the U.S., Iowa, with their daughter, Elizabeth Smith-Doyle in 1865, and her family.
(From a Census from 1851, Ontario, Drummond township, Lanark, Co, Canada,it says that Mrs. Mathilda McCabe-Smyth/Smith had been a widow when this census was taken. Other sources say that GreatGreatGreat Grandfather John Smith emigrated with his wife and daughter and the rest of thier family into Iowa.)
Elizabeth appears to have had a sister Dorenda=(born 1825), and Rebecca=(1824),and brother William=(born 1821 in Ireland) =(married to Mary Smith(born 1824 in Ireland)=CHILDREN, John, Jr Smith and Mathilda Smith=(both born in Canada listed born same year; 1848). It may bethat John Smith, on this same Census of 1851, is another son with his family:John Smyth/Smith (born 1815 Ireland) married to;= Elizabeth Smyth/Smith (born in Canada=1845=Children=(Melissa Smith (born 1844 Canada) and Anne Smith (born 1849).I am pretty sure this is correct, but needs verifying.-Maureen Moore, Feb. 2005.
