My Father Arthur James Smith II as a young toddler with his father AJ Smith I. Through his mother Lillie Hoffman
Smith, daughter of Emma Stephenson Hoffman, AJ Smith II was a great-grandson of Captain James Bell Stephenson. *****************************************
THE FOLLOWING ARE PROPOSED LINEAGES AND MANY UNPROVEN:
AUSTIN: Samuel Augusta Austin (b. NH 1815> GA> FL> TX) Came from Springfield, Massachusetts, married
Hannah Jane Dowling in Thomasville, Georgia in 1850 while working as a brick mason on the Thomas County courthouse.
> Lettie Austin b.1855 Thomas Co GA + Jacob Allen Barrett >James Barrett b. TX > Maud B. Cloyd> Sibyl Cloyd
Smith > Betty Smith Meischen
BALL: Lord Mayor William Ball 1450 Barkham Manor Berkshire England>
Robert b. 1475> William b. 1505> John b. 1525> John b. 1548 Workingham Berkshire England> William b. 1573 Wiltshire
England> William b. 1615 Barkham Manor England-died 1680 Lancaster VA> Richard b. 1639 Lancaster VA> (??)Edward B.
1670 Middlesex VA > Valentine Ball 1706 Middlesex VA married Susannah Lewis, daughter of John Lewis and (?) Elizabeth McGrath
> Mary Ball + John Hargrove> Lindsay Hartgrove + Elizabeth Moore > Ann Hartgrove + Robert L. Wilson >Loucinda
Wilson + Daniel R. Munn> Elizabeth Munn b. Travis Co. Texas + Fred Smith of England > Arthur James Smith >
Arthur James Smith> Betty Smith Meischen (This Ball line traces back to 1500's England and is the same line as President
George Washington)
Alternate Ball lineage and more agreed upon by authorities who have thoroughly researched
this line: William Ball England to Lancaster VA > Henry Ball + Alice Brooks Middlesex Co.
VA> Valentine Ball + Susannah Lewis marriage Middlesex Co VA Christ Church Parish 1733> Mary Ball + John W.
Hargrove>Lindsey Hargrove> Ann Hargrove + Robert Wilson> Loucinda Wilson b. 1843 Itawamba MS + Daniel R.
Munn married Monroe Co. MS. 1859> Sarah (Serena) Elizabeth Munn on 1880 Texas Census of Travis Co. + Fred Smith>AJ
Smith I, >AJS II> Betty
BARRETT: Virginia or Ireland>> Jacob Allen Barrett
(b.GA 1849> TX) some say he was a twin, >James Samuel Barrett + Martha Duke > Maud Barrett + Raymond Cloyd>
Sibyl Cloyd> Betty Was this the same
line as from which William Barrett Travis descended? Family history points in that direction. If so, does it go back to the
Barretts of the Jamestown colony in Virginia?
BELL: James Mathew Bell (b. NC
1790-96> GA> FL> TX 1822) + Margaret Grimes Ray married 1832 in Washington Co. Texas > Rebecca Bell b TX 1833 +
Newitt Cloyd >Perry Cloyd + Zillah Young> Raymond Cloyd + Maud Barrett > SibylCloyd + AJ SMith >
Betty There are too many clues and too many
Bells to be conclusive but most probably they descend from one of the early Virginia Bell families prior to the American Revolution.
There are two very close lines that have all the same associated families. One Bell line (the Stone Church Bells) arises in
Augusta Co. VA and the other is from the Blackwater River area of VA, Surry, Sussex, Nansemond Counties--the John Bell--Anne
Bennett family. Amelia Bell
(b, 1796 NC) + James Stephenson > James Bell Stephenson b. 1820 FL + Melissa Maxwell >Emma Stephenson +
William Hoffman b. TX>Lillie Hoffman Smith> AJ Smith> Betty Mary Bell + John Slade itinerant Methodist minister of early Florida > John
G. Bell of Hamilton Co Florida, adopted son of Thomas Bell, brother of James Bell of Bellville, Texas. Was Mary the
sister of James and Thomas Bell?
BOUTWELL: (MASS>VA>NC>SC1711) James Boutwell b 1616/17
d 26 Sep 1651 + Hannah Davis?or Alice Lawson b Abt 1621d: 1687> James Boutwell + Rebecca Kendall b: 10 Feb 1644
d30 Aug 1713> James Boutwell + Elizabeth Frothingham> Samuel Boutwell b19 Mar 1703 + Anna Margareitta Spruill
>Burtonhead Boutwell + Elizabeth Commander b: Abt 1739> Mary BOUTWELL+ JAMES R.S.DOWLING d: Abt 1797> Willis
Dowling + Nancy Cook or William Dowling > Hannah Jane Dowling b.FL + Samuel Austin Thomas Co. on Ga. 1850 Census>
Lettie Austin> Jim Barrett> Maud Barrett> Sibyl Cloyd> Betty This is a proposed lineage of Hannah Jane Dowling who married Samuel Augusta Austin. If proven correct,
this line traces back to the signers of the Magna Carta.
BRADSHAW: George Bradshaw
b. 1587 London, England > Robert b. 1622 London d. 1666 Northumberland Co. VA> Anne Bradshaw b. 1660 VA + William
Lambert> Hugh> Anne Lambert 1699 N Farnham Parish Richmond Va + Robert Hammock b. 1697 Westmoreland Co VA>>John
b. 1764 d. 1843 Talbot Co Ga > Hope Hull Hammock 1806 Wilkes? GA> Francis Hammock+ Samuel L. Duke> Martha Duke
+ Jim Barrett> Maud>Sibyl> Betty There could be a French Hugenot connection here. Another name considered
was Brashear and this line was followed in Virginia: The Cradle of America.
BROOKS: Jonathan
Brooks B. 1661 Middlesex VA d. Middlesex Va 1686/87+ Sarah Mayo> Alice Brooks Middlesex Co VA+ Henry Ball> Valentine
Ball> Mary Ball+ John W. Hargrove> Lindsey Hargrove >Ann Hargrove + Robert L. Wilson > Lucinda W.
Munn >Betty Munn Smith> AJSmith> AJSmith II> Betty
BUTCHER: Mary Butcher + Robert
Middleton> Christian Middleton +Wm Hammock m. 1693 Richmond VA> Robert Hammock> John Hammock + Milenor Jackson
( drew in the Gerogia lottery as widow of a VETERAN OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION)> Hope Hull Hammock> Francis Hammock
Duke> Martha Duke Barrett> Maud Barrett Cloyd > Sibyl Cloyd Smith> Betty Smith Meischen
CLOYD:
> Londonderry, County Antrim, Ireland> PA ?> VA? >TN?>GA?> Newitt Cloyd/Cloud (b. Clarke Co AL 1821>AL1821>TX),
>Perry Cloyd + Zillah Young> Raymond Cloyd > Sibyl Cloyd Smith > Betty. Main clue: Noah Doddridge, his grandfather, sold land to Joshua Cloud in Hancock GA--Newitt’s
son named Joshua) Suspect lineage through James Cloyd. If this lineage is correct, the Cloyds may have participated in the
Siege of Londonderry in the 1600's. They were protestant and may have had the name MacLeod in Scotland. Very possibly
these were the same family of Cloyds who lived in County Antrim in Ireland with the Houstons, Youngs, Wilsons and Crocketts
that came to America with them in the early to mid 1700's settling in Augusta Co. VA. There is an early Joshua Cloyd/Cloud who received a grant of land near the Bells along
the Blackwater River and this is discussed as a good possibility also in my book Virginia: the Cradle of America.
DODDRIDGE: (DODRILL, DOEDRIL, DODRELL, DODRIDGE, DAUGHDRIDGE, DANDRIDGE, DOTY, DAUGHTRY, DAUGHTERY, DOUGHTRY)
Noah Doddridge/Dodrill (MD1760-70>VA>NC> Hancock, Baldwin Co. GA 1790> Clarke Co AL 1821 married Constantine>
Elizabeth Cloyd> Newitt Cloyd b. 1821 Clarke Co. AL in TX 1850 >Perry >Raymond >Sibyl> Betty. Doddridge is
in Georgia and closely associated with the Cato (uncle of Rosanna Cato Travis, wife of William Barret Travis), Adams and Brewer
families both in Georgia and in Alabama. He is also found in Virginia in 1787 in Charlotte Co. before he goes to Georgia.
DOWLING: Frampton (Hampton?) Dowling Immigrated from Tyrone Ireland 1643 to VA (SC1823>GA?FL>TX),
Robert> Robert> James> Willis or William Dowling???> Hannah Dowling + Samuel Austin>
Lettie Austin Barrett> James Barrett> Maud> Sibyl> Betty According to historical documents and the DAR, both James and his brother John Dowling, as well as
their father Robert, rode with Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox during the American Revolution. Francis Marion was the character
after whom the movie THE PATRIOT was modeled. I have a theory that Frampton may have been a mis-reading of Hampton as this
name appears several times in later lineages.
DUKE: This family traces back to England in the
early 1600's. If correct in the assumptions, this is the same roots from which the Duke tobacco family descended and the family
of Duke University. In early 1600's Virginia, it is believed to be from the line of Col Henry Duke branch 1655 James
City Co. VA> Capt Henry Duke> through John Taylor Duke d. 1785 Washington Co. GA son Robert was living in Kershaw Co
SC 1784 ???> Samuel Duke b. 1799 SC or GA > Samuel L. Duke b. Taylor Co. GA buried in Buckhorn, Austin
Co. Texas, married Francis Hammock> Martha Duke Barrett> Maud Barrett Cloyd> Sibyl Cloyd Smith> Betty. (Another
Clue: Supposedly John Taylor Duke had a son Adam Duke who married Elizabeth Ragland. They had a son Samuel in SC. After his
death, Elizabeth married Jacob Curry and the Currys later married into the Barretts in Texas)
GARDNER
: Martin Gardner> Martin?>John Gardner b.1755 Sussex Co VA (Bertie Co NC> Stewart Co. TN) >(marriage to Elizabeth
James 1780 in Bertie Co.)> Eurydice Grimes> Margaret Grimes Bell & Nancy Grimes Granville> Rebecca Bell Cloyd
& Abigail Granville Young> Perry Cloyd & Margaret Z. Young>Raymond Cloyd> Sibyl> Betty This Gardner family
was prominant in early Virginia.
GRANVILLE: Benjamin Granville b. 1789 Suffolk & Middlesex,
London, England immigrated 1827 to America landing in New York. He made his way to Ann Arbor Michigan before coming to TX
in 1834. He married Nancy Grimes Benton, widow of Charles Benton who had received an original Spanish land grant in Austin
County Texas. Granville was the first postmaster of Bellville and also served as Justice of the Peace. > Abigail Granville
married Hiram Miles Young> Margaret Zillah Young + Perry Cloyd >Raymond Cloyd > Sibyl Smith >Betty .(Ship’s
list him immigrating into NY harbor with 4 children) All leads on Granville/Grenville go back to Devon England. The connection
if proven could possibly lead back to the line of Sir Richard Grenville who along with Sir Walter Raleigh and Sir Frances
Drake ran schooners to America.
GREER: This line may lead back to Alphin King of Scotland
d. 834>>>Prince Henry of Scotland, brother of King William the Lion> Marjory + William Lindsay, 1st Lord Crawford>
daughter +William, Laird of MacGregor d. 1238> Gregor IV laird of MacGregor >Malcom I Laird of MacGregor> Gilbert

Arthur J. Smith> Betty. Balthazar is buried on the tract of land that once belonged to William Barrett
Travis. He purchased this property and continued to farm it. It was here that my grandmother Lillie Hoffman Smith
was born. Emma Stephenson's grandfather James Stephenson had received a league of land on nearby Caney Creek in 1831 where
he knew Travis and had done some trading with him. They both belonged to the fledgling Methodist congregation there.

Above is a picture of my gr-gr-grandmother Margaret Grimes Ray Bell. She was the wife of James Bell,
co-founder of Bellville, Austin County, Texas. James Bell received an original land grant in what is now Waller and
Grimes County but was then Austin County in 1832. The 7777 acre Bell plantation ajoined that of Jared Groce, called
the "Father of Cotton in Texas." Nearby also was the plantation of James Bell Stephenson. Margaret Grimes and James Bell's daughter Rebecca, who
was born in 1833, married Newitt Cloyd, sheriff of Austin County in 1864-65 during the Civil War. My mother
Sibyl Cloyd Smith was his great granddaughter. ***************************************** Family Names Continued:

one through Philadelphia> Chester Co PA then down into Augusta Co. VA. The other line came directly to Charleston and to
the area around Spartansburg SC (King’s Mountain). There is a Young-Stephenson connection there that strongly indicates
