  2. 3.  Austin SMITH, Jr. Descendancy chart to this point (1.Sarah1) was born on 20 Dec 1753 in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut; died on 9 Dec 1846 in Schroeppel, Oswego County, New York.

    Notes:

    Name:
    "Connecticut Ancestry": On 2 October 1798 Austin Smith Jr. of Stamford gave bond as guardian of Luke Smith, a son of Joshua Smith, late of Stamford, deceased. Austin Smith Jr's pension application file makes it clear that he was this person from Stamford, enlisting there on 1 Jan 1777, and aged 66 years in Aug 1820. During this enlistment he served three years with the ranks of Corporal (11 months) and Sergeant (13 months) in Col. Philip Bradley's Connecticut Regiment and was discharged on 29 Dec 1779 at Morristown, new Jersey. An earlier enlistment in Col. David Waterbury's Company of the 5th connecticut Regiment from 8 May to 13 Dec 1775 was clearly for this same "Austin Smith Jr." but not recognized at all in "Stamford's Soldiers". Another brief enlistment from 6 Dec 1776 to 11 Jan 1777 in Capt. Jonathan Whitney's Company of the 9th Connecticut Militia Regiment was almost certainly for this soldier although often attributed to his father. Austin Jr's older brother Gold Smith served in this same Company and it would have been extremely unlikely that a 48 year old father with a large family at home would have served in the same Company with his oldest son. Austin Smith, Jr. later resided in a variety of locations in New York State.....

    Austin married Elizabeth NEWMAN on 11 Jan 1781 in Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Austin married Rebecca REYNOLDS about 1800. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  3. 4.  Peter SMITH Descendancy chart to this point (1.Sarah1) was born on 2 Aug 1755 in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut; died on 5 Jun 1837.

    Notes:

    Name:
    "Connecticut Ancestry": In addition to the information on his military service in "Stamford's Soldiers" pp. 265-66, his Pension Application file states that he was wounded at the Battle of Monmouth and as a result had already been on the invalid pension list for several years before 1820.....

    Peter married Nancy LINTWORTH on 17 Jan 1787 in Stamford, Fairfield, Connecticut, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 5.  Mary SMITH Descendancy chart to this point (1.Sarah1) was born in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut; was christened on 10 Apr 1757 in St. John's Episcopal Church, Stamford, Connecticut.

  5. 6.  Elizabeth SMITH Descendancy chart to this point (1.Sarah1) was born in Stamford, Fairfield County, Connecticut; was christened on 18 Feb 1759 in St. John's Episcopal Church, Stamford, Connecticut; was buried on 10 Jul 1837 in Stamford, Connecticut.

    Notes:

    Name:
    "Connecticut Ancestry": He was the youngest of four brothers in this family to serve in the Revolution. Except for a time in New York State at Greenville in Green County (where his pension application was first granted), he resided in the Stamford area, at New Canaan at least from 1820 until the time of his death....
