Hello Laurie.Heres some helpful notes for you, my GGGGgrandmother was Anna Maria Schmetter at age 4 weeks was baptisted as Mary Smithers.Heres what I know Wilhem Schmetter known as William Smithers was from Luzerne County,PA His father was John Schmetter from England.William's son was George J Smithers and his son Thomas changed his name from Thomas Smithers to Thomas Smothers and Tennessee and them to Kentucky,but he was born in Luzerne County,PA.Now another one of George's son Christian changed his name to Smathers.
So you have Schmetters,Smithers,Smathers, and Smothers.Kinda a tongue twister.
I am related to the Schmetters on both sides of my familytree,Wilhem Schmetter and Maria C.Jeakel is my GGGGGgrandparents on my fathers side,my GGGGGGGgrandparents on my mothers side. TTFN,Butch George
