Notes:

James McConnell Smith is reputed to have been the first white child born in NC west of the Blue Ridge Mountains.  He and his wife Polly Patton settled in Asheville.  He owned the Buck Hotel, a tanyard, and three farms.  He built, and for several years managed, Smith's Bridge, the first bridge over the French Broad River in Buncombe County.  He sold the bridge to the State.  James was a wealth land owner in Asheville and other parts of North Carolina and even in Georgia.

"James McConnell Smith was the most well to do of the Smith Children. He owned the Buck Hotel in down town Asheville and owned a ferry. He owned a big house in Asheville which is now open to the public as a historic site. It is called the Smith-McDowell House and it is part of a college or community college campus. There you can see pictures, furnishings, his 20 page will and Daniel Smith's long gun. He apparently was quite an investor and entrepreneur. He also was supposed to be the first white child born on that side of the Mountains and it says so on his tombstone."--e-mail from Sheila Quinn - saquinn@aol.com.

Notes:

Col. Daniel Smith, originally from New Jersey, was a celebrated frontiersman and Indian fighter.  He was a hunter and a Patriot soldier, a Captain in the Burke County, NC, militia during the Revolution, and a Colonel in the Buncombe County, NC, militia after the War.  Daniel was prominent among the men who crossed the mountain to avenge the death (in 1784) of Samuel Davidson.

Family records indicate that he moved directly from New Jersey to North Carolina in 1776; however, records exist in Augusta County, VA, that a Daniel Smith lived there.  (see Hand, p. 30)
____________________

Born in New Jersey in 1757. Died in Asheville, Buncombe county, North Carolina. Enlisted in the Burke county, North Carolina militia and stationed at the head of the Catawba River to defend the frontiers against the Indians. He fought in the battle of Kings Mountain and other battles in the region. He is buried at the Old Newton Academy Cemetery on Biltmore Ave in Asheville, Buncombe county, North Carolina.

Family was known at one time as "Smithson"
___________

Daniel Smith is listed in the 1800 census of Buncombe county, North Carolina as head of a household consisting of 2 males under 10, 2 males 10-16, 2 males 26-45, 3 females under 10,1 female'10-16, 1 female 26-45, 1 slave.

Daniel Smith was a native of New Jersey born in 1757. According to some entries in the family Bible Smithson was the name used by this family at one time.

Daniel Smith lived in Rowan and Burke Counties, North Carolina during the Revolution, and served from 1776 to the close ot the Revolution, principally against the Indians, as Captain of North Carolina Militia, a part of the time under Col. Charles McDowell and Gen. Gritfith Ruthertord.

In the fall ot 1781 Daniel Smith and Mary McConnell Davidson were married at the ''The Glades" home. Her father was Major William Davidson in Burke County, (now McDowell County) North Carolina. Mary Davidson was a niece of Samuel Davidson who was killed by Indians at his homestead on Christian Creek near Swannanoa in 1784. It is said but not certainly known that Samuel Davidson's wife was a sister ot Daniel Smith.

In 1787 Daniel Smith was apparently in the party that formed the first settlement on Bee Tree Creek but moved on west and settled on the east side of the French Broad River on the ridge north of the confluence of the Swannanoa and French Broad Rivers. He and William Forster, the second of the name, being the first two men 'to settle in what is now the City of Asheville. The land was part of a grant of 640 acres made by the State of North Carolina to William Stewart dated August 7, 1787. It bears the signature of Richard Caswell, Governor of the state. In the year 1796 William Stewart conveyed 308 acres to Daniel Smith in consideration ot "one hundred pounds of lawful money of said State of North Carolina."

One ot the artifacts from this period of history, inherited and preserved through the Reynolds family and carefully guarded by Pack Memorial Library is the special musket carried and prized by Daniel Smith throughout his litetime. It was a pre-revoIutionary smoothbore flintlock dubbed "Long Tom" and his constant companion as he travelled extensively about this part of the country in search of food and furs, and for defense of the settlement. With the opening of the Smith-McDowell House in June 1981 it "came home'' for display on property that he pioneered.
___________

Colonel Daniel Smith, apparently in the party that formed the first settlement on Bee Tree, a hunter and an American soldier in the Revolutionary War, settled immediately east of the railroad at the first branch above the passenger station at Asheville, on the ridge, just north of the branch where his cabin stood for many years. The site is now in Asheville; he and William Forster, the second of the name, being the first two men to settle in what is now the City of Asheville. In his home there, Colonel Daniel Smith died. He was buried where Fennihurst is now, but about 1875 his grave was removed to the Newton Academy graveyard. The following is the interesting inscription on his tombstone:

"In memory of Col. Daniel Smith, who departed this life on the 17th of May, 1824, Aged 67. A native of New Jersey, an industrious citizen, an honest man, and a brave soldier. The soil which inurns his ashes is a part of the heritage wrested by his valor for his children and his country from a ruthless and savage foe."

He married Mary Davidson, daughter of Major William Davidson and niece of Samuel Davidson. It is said but not certainly known that Samuel Davidson's wife was a sister of Colonel Smith. Samuel Davidson and Daniel Smith were close friends and hunted together, sometimes west of the Blue Ridge where, on one occasien at least they were chased by a band of Cherokees.

Prominent among the men who came across the mountains to avenge the death of Samuel Davidson was Daniel Smith. His old gun is still in Asheville. Mrs. Mary Smith, his widow, died April 29, 1842 and is buried by his side.

One day when Colonel Daniel Smith was hunting on Beaucatcher a gunshot from the direction of his home was heard and he hastened home to find that some friends visiting him had found a large black bear bathing in his spring and had shot the too familiar animal.

Colonel Smith hated Cherokees. One day he saw two Indians crossing French Broad River in his canoe. Rushing to the bank of the stream he shot and killed both Indians. As this happened to be a time when there was peace between the races Colonel Smith narrowly escaped an indictment for murder in killing these trespassers.

As he was a militia Colonel, he was buried with military honors by the Buncombe Militia. ____

Daniel and Mary (Davidson) Smith had nine children.

1. Their first son William Davidson Smith was born October 1, 1784. He married December 31,1808 Sarah Carson. One of their daughters Mary Monnett Smith married William Turner Johnson and have descendants living in Buncombe and Henderson Counties.

2. Their second son James McConnell Smith was born June 14, 1787 and was reputed to have been the first child of white parentage born in what is now the City of Asheville. He married June 28,1814 Mary (Polly) Patton daughter of Col. John Patton and Ann Mallory. He became one of the leading citizens of Asheville and acquired a large fortune. He ran the Buck Hotel at the corner of N. Main Street (now Broadway) and College Street. He was in the mercantile business and was a large land owner. His most famous claim to fame is still standing today as a memorial to its builder, the Smith-McDowell House on Victoria Road. James McConnell and Mary (Polly) (Patton) Smith had seven daughters and two sons. They all married except one son John Patton Smith. They married into prominent families of the area and have many descendants still living in Buncombe County. Their fitth daughter Sarah Lucinda Smith married William Wallace McDowell in 1846. The McDowells reared nine children and lived in the brick house on Victoria about twenty-five years.

3. Daniel and Mary (Davidson) Smith's first daughter Elizabeth (Betsy) Smith was born April 1,1789 and married Mallory Brandon Patton August 10, 1814. Mallory Brandon Patton and Mary (Polly) Patton were brother and sister.

4. Their second daughter Mary Polly) Smith was born Nov 25,1795 and married John Hawkins and moved to the Action Section of Buncombe County.

5. Daniel Smith, Jr. was born Feb. 5,1798 and married Margaret McRee in 1820. (Jack Woodward's Great-Great-Great-Great Grandfather)

6. John L. Smith; no record (was living in 1844 according to Pension claim)

7. Nancy A. Smith was born March 14, 1800 and married G. William Burnett Sept. 26, 1822.

8. Moses Smith was born March 14, 1502 and married Hannah Lane.

9. Jane 0. Smith was born Oct. 18,1804 and married Alfred Fortune.

On March 7, 1845 David Lowry Swain, President of the State University at Chapel Hill wrote a letter in relation to Col. Daniel Smith of Buncombe. Excerpts of that letter follow: "I was born on fhe 4th Jan. 1801 (at the head of Beaverdam). In the winter of 1806/7 my father settled in Asheville within two miles and a half of Col. Smith's residence. I went to school with his children from 1807 until 1820. I knew him familiarly, wrote his will, wrote his epitaph for his tombstone, and was one of a company which about the last of May 1824 buried him with military honors. He was sentimentally proud of his revolutionary services, frequently referred to that in conversation, and was universally esteemed by his neighbors. An old soldier of much more than common intrepidity his circumstances were good and his reputation that of a brave and honest revolutionary officer."

Daniel and Mary (Davidson) Smith are buried in Newton Academy Cemetery and the epitaph written by David Lowry Swain reads as follows:

"In memory of Col. Daniel Smith who departed this life on the 17th May 1824 Native of New Jersey an industrious citizen, an honest man and a brave soldier. The soil which inurns his ashes is part of the heritage wrested by his valoor for his children and his country from a ruthless and a savage foe."
Mrs. Frances A. McDowell (Mrs. Edward E.)

Devault Beck served on the Rowan county, North Carolina jury from Capt Daniel Smith's District on Aug 8, 1778.
_____________

"Daniel is an enigma. His headstone says he was born in New Jersey. He was a Smithson and changed his name. He was in Rowan County when he married Mary Davidson. Later he was involved in building Davidson's Fort (now Old Fort, NC) and was business partner with Samuel (one-eye) Davidson there. Samuel was married to Daniel's sister Mary Smith. Samuel was Mary Davidson's uncle, her father William was his twin brother. After Samuel was murdered by the Indians, the Davidsons and Smiths moved alittle further west and Mary's parents are buried in the Bee Tree Community near Swannanoa. Daniel and Mary are buried at the Newton Grove Cemetary which is now pretty close to downtown Asheville. There are many stories about Daniel's hatred for the Indians after the murder of Samuel and he considered himself an Indian fighter. He served in the Revolutionary War and was called Captain Smith (don't think that was really his rank) and was well respected as a soldier. I understand from staff at the Smith McDowell house that Daniel was a little rough around the edges for the tastes of the up and coming Smiths and that he remained a pioneering, Indian fighting, Soldier up to the end."--e-mail from Sheila Quinn - saquinn@goldenminutes.com

Notes:

Major William Davidson was born in Ireland in October 1737.  Some sources list his birth year as 1739.  Samuel Davidson was his twin brother.  His family moved about 1750 to what was then Center Church in Rowan County, NC.  This area is now in Iredell County.

He married Margaret McConnell.

When the Revolutionary War broke out, he was living in western Rowan County at a place called "The Glades", now in McDowell County, NC, on the Catawba River near Greenlee.

Soon after the war, he removed from "The Glades" a place not far from the present village of Old Fort in McDowell County, NC, on the Catawba River to the Swannanoa River in what is now Buncombe County, NC, where he resided till his death at age 78 on 16 May 1814.  The home was in the mountains at the mouth of Bee Tree Creek and remained in the family for about a century.  He is buried on the estate.

The following is a biography abstracted from the book "Genealogy of the Davidson Family of the Duck River Valley" by Ede Davidson Neil, John Q. Davidson, and Hugh Davidson (Nashville, 1907):

"William Davidson was a patriot in every sense of the word, and was by appointment of the Provincial Congress, April 22, 1776, a Major in the Fourth North Carolina Regiment.  He was a member of the Continental Congress from North Carolina from 1818 to 1821  [Sic. -  This is impossible.  By 1818, he was dead and the Continental Congress no longer existed.], and was also the first Senator in the Legislature of North Carolina from the county of Buncombe.  The county of Buncombe was organized at his home, and the first County Court was held there.  From an old record we get the following:

"'B.'
"'North Carolina, Buncombe County, April 16th, A.D. 1792. -- Agreeable to a commission to us directed, the County Court of said county was begun, opened, and held at the house of Col. William Davidson, Esq.  Present: James Davidson, David Vance, William Whitson, William Davidson, James Alexander, James Brittain, Philip Hoodenpile.'

"He was also a member of the Committee of Safety for Rowan County.  At a meeting of this committee held on Wednesday, November 8, 1775, we find the following resolution:

"'Resolved, That John Brevard, John Dickey, Moses Winsley, and Hugh Brevard, or any three of them, attend at Capt. William Davidson's, on the 20th instant, to see that the company of minute men, whom he has enlisted, are embodied, and able, effective men, and make report to the next committee.'

"An old family record shows that William Davidson died May 16, 1814, aged 78 years.  His wife Margaret (McConnell) Davidson, died November 13, 1806, aged 58 years; yet the monument erected by the D.A.R.'s gives the year of his death as 1810.  The following is a copy of what appears on his monument:

"'MAJ. WM. DAVIDSON
          1744-1810
  Soldier of the Revolution.
  House of Commons, 1790.
  Senate,                      1792.

One of the earliest settlers of the French Broad Valley.
He was prominent in the organization of Buncombe County.'

"On the reverse side:

"'  Erected by the
        D.A.R.'

"In 'King's Mountain and Its Heros' the following appears:

"'A little incident, worthy of relation, occurred while the British Troops were encamped at William Davidson's place.  A soldier was tempted to kill a chicken and enjoy a savory meal: but he was discovered by Mrs. Davidson, who reported the theft to Ferguson.  He had the culprit punished, and gave the good lady a dollar in compensation for the loss. This was certainly creditable to Ferguson's sense of justice: but it was, like an oasis in the desert, a circumstance of very unfrequent occurrence.'

"This Mrs. Davidson was Margaret McConnell, wife of William Davidson, our ancestor, and must have been a woman of considerable courage, as Ferguson was known as 'The Great Wolf of North Carolina,' who often showed his bloodthirsty temper.

"On another occasion, while the British were on the lookout for 'rebels,' they went ot the home of William Davidson: and young Morrison, her husband's half-brother, attempted to frighten her into revealing the hiding place of her husband by pointing a gun at her in a threatening manner.  He failed to get any information.

"By way of explanation we will say that some of the 'Duck River' branch of the Davidsons have been a little confused by the fact that there were two William Davidsons, which can be easily explained.  We descend from William Davidson, son of John Davidson (The First).  Gen. William Lee Davidson, who was killed at Cowan's Ford, February 1, 1781, while resisting the advance of the British forces, under command of Colonel Hall, was a son of George Davidson, brother of John Davidson (The First).  A renegade Tory, Frederick Hager, was Colonel Hall's guide on this occasion; and it was thought by General Davidson's friends that it was Hagar who killed him, as he was shot through the body by a bullet from a small-bored gun -- the only one in the Bristish command -- and was carried by Hager.  After the war, it was entirely 'too hot' for Hager in North Carolina, and he came to Tennessee and settled near Cascade Falls, in what is now Coffee County.  Several years later John Davidson (The Third) and his brother, Hugh Davidson, came to the Duck River country and settled, the latter about four miles east of Normandy.  Hager, learning this fact, removed again westward, going into the wilderness of Arkansas, and died near Lone Post, leaving a large family."

PACOLET, Spartanburg County, SC
March 11, 1875
Friend Spartan:

The other day I saw a  veritable Centennial curiosity. Just below the old Grindal shoals, on Pacolet  river, stands a large beech tree about three and half feet in diameter, upon  which is carved the initials " W.D., 1776 " and tradition says it was CAPT.  WILLIAM DAVIDSON, who was in command of a picket at that memorable ford, while  some troops were making their way to Charleston. On the South side of the river,  a considerable number of torys lived- hence the " rebels", in camping always  used the precaution to guard the ford. That WILLIAM DAVIDSON must have been a  good scholar or at least expert in carving as the letters and figures are well  made and beautifully proportioned. On another beech close by, is inscribed  LEMUEL FERNANDES, 1804. This old ford has long since, from necessity, gone out  of use. In olden times there was here a fine shoal and boats sluices, but not a  vestage of it is to be seen. The natural bed of the river, I suppose, has been  elevated five or six feet and mostly ruined the once magnificent water  power of that place.
