    ... John Smith of Coxtown (?-1717/18) married ca. 1706 Dorothy, widow of both Michael Taney (?-1702) and Richard Blundell (?-1705), and daughter of Roger Brooke (1637-1700). He became a justice by 1714/15 when his name appears last on the list of men officiating at a court session in Calvert County. Although he controlled at least 1,000 acres of Taney land after his marriage, he does not appear to have been of comparable status to John Smith of Hall's Creek in 1701. ...

    ... The ancestor of this Smith family was John Smith, a native of England, whence he emigrated to this country, and settled in what is now Calvert County, Md., between 1660 and 1666. He was the owner of a plantation that was known as "Brooke's Adventure." He was married to Dorothy Brooke, a daughter of the Rev. Robert Brooke, a minister of the Episcopal Church, then residing in Calvert County. Robert Brooke had grant of "Dela Brooke Manor," 2,000 acres on Patuxent River. ...
