  • Notes 
    • Samuel was born to Anne Young (11/5/1756 - 4/4/1780), first wife of Dr. William Smith ( previous portrait sent). She died at age 23, 19 days after Samuel's birth which suggests complications at childbirth.

      Dr William Smith remarried in 1783 to Letitia Correy (1753-1806). Page 194 of the Hart Book states that Samuel was a brother of John Correy Smith (born to Letitia Correy on 10/3/1784). He was a 1/2 brother of Samuel Ferguson Smith.

      The William Smith Biography from the History of the St Andrews Society describes both wives, and mentions two sons of the good doctor: William Harrison and Samuel as members of the society.
