The following information was copied from the Family Bible of the Rev. Anthony 
Garnett Smith [Sr.] This was written by him as a tribute to his Godly parents.

Robert Smith departed this life December 9, 1834 being 85 years, 10 months and 
2 days old. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church upward of 47 
years. As he lived so he died, in peace-saying he felt his way clear.

Hannah [Andrews] Smith departed this life January 2, 1845 being 89 years, 29 
days old. Mother joined the Methodist Episcopal Church in the winter of 1787. 
Her life corresponded with her profession, she had no fear of death, but 
waited patiently the coming of her Lord and Savior.


Additional Comments:
This record of the Robert Smith, Jr. Bible was sent to me by Anthony 
Joseph "Joe" Smith, Sr. of San Augustine, Florida many years ago. He later 
placed it in a reprinted history of Mt. Pleasant Methodist Church of 
Oglethorpe, Co., GA.
