Message Board Post:
Abram Smith (Nancy Childs)is said to be son of Wm & Elizabeth (Reel) Smith of Franklin
Co., VA per NSDAR apps from two sisters, Lenora and Mae Smith, daus of James H. Smith who
ended up in KS. But there are no proofs attached to their member apps and I have found no
proof that Wm of Franklin Co. VA was the father of Abram in a quick survey of the records.
There may be a will for Wm in Franklin that provides proof--I haven't checked that.
Abram's will is now on-line and indicates George W. Smith was his stepson. Good luck
with the Smith research.
