John Smith b.1785 d.1821 of West Virginia Please Help
I have been scouring the Forums and Ancestry.com for concrete evidence of the father of John Smith b. 6 Jul 1785 Union, Monroe, West Virginia d. 4 Oct 1821 Union, Monroe, WV m. Fannie Raines 10 Aug 1806.
Children of John Smith and Fannie Raines
1. Lewis S Smith b. abt 1807 Union, Monroe, West Virginia
m. Nancy
2. Thomas Smith b. abt 1809 Union, Monroe, West Virginia
3. Jacob Smith b. 3 Aug 1811 Union, Monroe, West Virginia
m. abt 1832 Elizabeth "Betsy" Givens
4.Archibald Smith b. 13 Apr 1813 Union, Monroe, West Virginia
d. abt 1875 m. abt 1834 Elizabeth Turner
5. Arbella or Ariebella Mary Smith b. 4 Nov 1815 Union, Monroe, West Virginia d. abt 1879 m. abt 1827 Tom Hemmings
6. John Smith b. 12 Dec 1818 Union, Monroe, West Virginia m. 24 Jul 1843 Mildred Arbelle Harless d. 25 Nov 1905 Newport, Giles, Virginia.
I know that the father of John Smith b. 1785 must have been John Smith as well because the marriage certificate read John Smith Jr. and Fanny Raines. I have no other information than that though. I know many people have his father as John Owen Smith but I have not seen any concrete evidence of that and would love any help.
Thank you.
