Person:Ann Smith T (1)

... Issue [of Francis Smith and Lucy Wilkinson] (named in wills and Bible records):
... 2. John (who wrote the letter "T" after his name by way of distinction), of Missouri, where he had extensive land grants. (U.S. Land Office Records.) He was a noted duellist, and is "said to have killed twelve or thirteen men in his various personal encounters. ... He died in his bed, an old man, on his estate, thirty miles below St. Louis." John F. Dabney's Personal Recollections" contains a sketch of John Smith T. He married and left issue only a daughter, who married, first. Dr. Deadrick, secondly, James M. White, both of St. Louis, Mo., where their descendants are yet living. ...

... Colonel Smith had only one child, a daughter, who first married John S. Decrick, by whom she had two children, a son and a daughter. After Dedrick's death, she married Capt. J.M. White, a gentleman of high character and great respectability, who lived in the city of St. Louis. By this marriage she had and reared a lard family of children. She was gentle and amiable in her manners, respected and loved by everybody who knew her. She had been brought up a Presbyterian, but from this church she voluntarily withdrew and attached herself to the Roman Catholic church from conscientious convictions alone, and in that faith she afterwards lived and died a devout member of the church. Col. John Smith T loved his daughter with as great affection and warm attachment as any man that ever lived, at least so said Major John F. Darby in his "Recollections." ...
