General Notes: Husband - Jacob Smail

---

He came to America with his family from Germany and settled in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, about four miles northwest of Leechburg. He engaged in farming, prospered, and became one of the well-known residents of the community. Though he had seventeen children he took up enough land to give each a tract of fifty acres. [HAC 1914, 440]

He was a civil engineer, and was a large landowner in which is now Bethel township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania.
