One appears on page 382 in Augusta County. The other appears on page 593 in Frederick County.Nothing appears in the 1820 census index.A Martin Smith does appear in the 1830 Augusta County census index on page 041 in the Northern District.A Martin Smith does appear in the 1850 Augusta County census index on page 228 in the Second District.There is a Martin Smith appearing in the 1783-1786 census for Greenbriar Co., VA.There are other Martin Smiths' appea!
ring in Bedford Co., VA.If anyone has time to research any of this, possibly it would produce further information. I was hoping for a deed to see where the family was and how close they may have been to the Piatt family.Dick, PA.==== PIATT Mailing List ====Had good luck with something you learned on a Rootsweb mailinglist?
