You are quite correct. . . . . this is the same family. It appears that all researchers of the Smitley name stop at this generation: Matthias Smitley.I've not run into anyone who has taken the family back further.However, this is interesting to note: Catherine Youkin's family appears to have come to Virginia from Pennsylvania. The Smitleys and the Youkins are neighbors in Virginia.Since there are so many Smitleys in Pennsylvania at this time, it seems possible that the Smitley family traveled to Virginia from Pennsylvania as well.It's just a thought. . . . . .
