Notes |
- From Davis history of Bucks:
[In 1765 Ralph Smith, son of William Smith, the immigrant, with his three
sons, William, Aaron and Zopher, went to South Carolina, and settled in
the Spartansburg district. He held the office of justiceof peace under
King George III, but resigned when hostilities with the colonies broke
out, and entered the army. He and his young son, Samuel, were arrested and
confined in the loathsome prison at Ninety-Six. His son Aaron was killed
at the battle of the Cowpens, and Zopher fought at the same battle.*]
