General Notes: Husband - Demas Smith


He emigrated to America from Germany. He served seven years in the war of the Revolution, being among the band of suffering heroes who for the cause of liberty endured those terrible winters at Valley Forge. He entered Washington County, Pennsylvania, about 1785, locating in West Bethlehem township, at the head of Daniels run. Here he resided two years, and then moved to Greene County, settling on a farm of 200 acres in what is now Washington township. He there passed the remainder of his life, dying in his ninety-sixth year. In politics, he was an Old-time Whig.
