Notes for John Smith:
John Smith did not locate with the others of the colony. He went
on with his family ntil he could see the Great South Bay from the meadow
lands of Merrick , and located there, east of Freeport and west of Bellmore
in 1644. The savages were cheerful, and kind, and welcomed John Smith
to Merrick. The Smiths thrived and increased; and the descendants
of John Smith, Rox were and still are known as Smiths, Rox, or Rock Smiths.
A John Smith Rock of Merrick signed a declaration of submission to Congress
in 1776; and at the present day nearly all of the Smiths of Merrick are
of this line of descent. When an account of the valuation of the estates
of the inhabitants of Hempstead was taken in 1685, John Smith owned 260
acres of land.

Henry settled in Plymouth, Massachusetts and came from England.

In the last 3 weeks all the Smith and Wiltsee genealogy has been flying
in. I work with two people on the internet. Donald Smith lives
in New York and is related to the Smith's and now
we found out John Smith married Margaret Wiltsee. (We have all
of that line also) Gene Majors is working on the Rogers line and James
Smith married Ruth Rogers. He went to LDS in Utah and made the connection
of John Smith and Margaret Wiltsee. Then I was able to get
Ruth Rogers fathers, Hezekiah (wife Hannah) will, to make the connection
to the Rogers family. It has been just great. Donald found
a book with all the Wiltsee and Smith Genealogy in it. He copied
11 pages and I will be happy to share it with you. Just send me your
address. I better get some sleep. Will
I am Virginia Smith send the book number and name later.
