Hello Linda:
No, I don't think that we have communicated yet and I am very happy to hear from you.
Thank you for the web addresses, I will follow up on them. I am also descended from Mary
Smith who married Henry Highfill. I am descended from their daughter, Harriet Highfill,
who married John Miller in Harrison County, IN. Have you had any luck tracing the Black
line back from Nancy? I have seen on line that her father was Samuel and his father was
Alexandar but don't know if this is true. I have also been trying to trace the
Highfill line which, I think, goes back to Jeremiah Highfill in MD.
It is so nice to hear from someone else who is a descendant, I just recently found out
about the Edward Smith connection so don't have an awful lot of information yet.
Best regards,
Jeanine
