Introducing James Smith of Smithtown, Suffolk Co, NY_______________________

"The Family of Richard Smith of Smithtown, Long Island" , Frederick Kinsman Smith, Smithtown Historical Society, Smithtown, NY, 1967

"James Smith (Job, Richard), born after 30 Aug 1688, married Jerusha, daughter of Elnathan and Mary Topping. Elnathan Topping, who died Sep 1751, was a son of Captain Elnathan and Mary (Cooper) Topping and a grandson of Thomas Topping, an early settler and magistrate of Southampton."

  • I believe Jerusha Topping was the daughter of Josiah Topping and Hannah Sayre.
