Smith Family History and Genealogy - Kentucky Pioneers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798232488185)

Our Smith family has a rich history that spans over 600 years, including ancestors who settled in Kentucky counties of Clay, Laurel, and Knox after following the Wilderness Road blazed by Daniel Boone through the Cumberland Gap. Our family has experienced many challenges and triumphs, from surviving the bubonic plague in England to crossing the ocean in wooden ships, to enduring wars and conflicts such as the American Revolutionary War, Native American attacks, the War of 1812, the Civil War, World War I, and World War II. Our ancestors were pioneers, patriots, and adventurers who embodied a deep sense of self-sufficiency and craftsmanship. With simple tools and bare hands, they carved out the wilderness and raised children who possessed confidence, respect for others, and faith in God.
