David Smith was born on 23 December 1781 probably near Freeburg, Penn Township, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.^1,2 He was the son of Stephen Smith and Maria Stroup.^3,4 He married Sarah Lane on 5 October 1809 in Sinking Creek Presbyterian Church, Potter Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania. They were married by Reverand William Stuart.⁵ He married Mary Ann Pryer, daughter of John Pryor and Hannah Lovell.^4,6 He died on 18 August 1880 in Franklin, Venango County, at age 98.^1,2 He was buried in a quiet churchyard in Rockland, in the spot selected "by him years ago." However, his gravestone has not been located so it is not known in which cemetery he was buried [DKM, 2003].⁶

     David Smith was raised in Potter Township, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania. [That part of Mifflin County became part of Centre County in 1800.] He learned the trades of miller and blacksmith. He also drove cattle in that area before his marriage.^6,4
     In a Daily Derrick article celebrating David's life written a few months before he died, his early years were described as follows:

"Born of poor but honest parents, he followed the avocation of a farm lad until he was about fifteen years of age. He recalls his early boyhood with sweet recollections. He was taught that cites were whirlpools of vice into which the young were caught as innets. The only life he could comprehend or could believe to be of any worth, was the life of a farmer, living and dying under one roof. At the age of sixteen he started to learn the milling trade, and finished his apprenticeship after he served seven years in old Major Potter's mill in Centre County."⁷

     At the time of the departure of the Lewis and Clark Expedition for the Pacific Coast in 1804, David was anxious to accompany them. He started on foot for St. Louis to join the party, but while in Illinois, he learned of their departure, so returned to Pennsylvania. However, while on this journey, he visited Cincinnati when nothing but a stockade and a few log huts marked the site of that city, and he was where Chicago now stands when a large village of Indians lived and thrived there.⁶
     David's obituary gives an insight to this "frontier love" story:

"True love, even in those days, was not permitted to run smoothly, and for some reason or other Miss Lane's guardian refused Mr. Smith's suit, but with the energy that characterized him he would not give up, and one day when the lady was in the house by herself, he came up with his horses, told her now was the time, and she, entering heartily with his plans, mounted the horse with him, rode to the neighboring preacher, and were married."⁶

     David Smith was listed as the head of a family on the 1810 Census of Potter Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania. The household consisted of 3 males 16-26, 1 female under 10, 1 female 16-26.⁸
     David Smith moved in the winter of 1818 from Centre County to Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, bringing his household effects on a sled. He brought no livestock except for two horses.⁹ He was the first blacksmith in Rockland Township.⁹ He purchased 250 acres in Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, from Bingham estate.¹⁰ He was listed as the head of a family on the 1820 Census of Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania. The household consisted of 1 male under 10, 1 male 26-45, 3 females under 10, 1 female 10-15, 1 female 26-45.¹¹ He held several township positions between 1820 and 1828 such as township supervisor, auditor, constable, tax collector and tax assessor.¹² He was listed as the head of a family on the 1830 Census of Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania. The household consisted of 1 male under 5, 1 male 10-15, 1 male 40-50, 1 female under 5, 1 female 10-15, 1 female 15-20, 1 female 20-30.¹³
     David Smith was "a strong supporter of the free school law and it was mainly through his earnest labor that the Township was carried for the free school system."⁶
     David Smith sold his land in Rockland Township in circa 1833 to Abraham Lusher.⁴ He moved his family across the Allegheny River to Sandycreek Township, Venango County.⁴ He purchased a tract of land located in Sandycreek Township on the banks of the Allegheny River at what became known as Smith's Bend.¹⁴ He was listed as the head of a family on the 1840 Census of Sandycreek Township, Venango County. The household consisted of 2 male 5-10, 1 male 20-30, 1 male 50-60, 1 female under 5, 3 female 10-15, 1 female 30-40.¹⁵ He was listed as the head of a family on the 1850 Census of Sandycreek Township, Venango County. The household consisted of David; his wife Mary; children Stephen, Hannah, Sioney, Martha, Louisa; and a boarder William Horoney, age 7.¹⁶ He was listed as the head of a family on the 1860 Census of Sandycreek Township, Venango County. The household consisted of David, his wife Mary, and daughters Hannah and Louisa.¹⁷ He sold his farm in Sandycreek Township in 1865 to the Eastern Oil Company.¹⁴
     David Smith moved to Franklin, Venango County.⁶ His home was at the corner of Liberty and 7th Streets and he lived there the rest of his life.⁶
     As to David's vocation, the Daily Derrick article notes that "Mr. Smith followed no particular line of merchantile business but was a speculator in many and amassed a fair fortune. From the time he moved to Franklin he "lead a retired life..., taking no special interest in anything except politics." That his obituary refered to him as David Smith, Esquire, a term usually reserved for attorneys or other highly educated, professional persons, reflects a certain position which he had attained during his lifetime.^7,6
     "The first Methodist meeting ever held in Rockland Township was at his house, and for a number of years [he was] a class leader in that organization." He always took an active part in the affairs of the church and before a church was built the services were most often held at David's house.⁶ He and Mary Ann were also founding members of the East Grove Methodist Church in Sandycreek Township.¹⁸
     David spent the summer of 1876 near Philadelphia and frequently during the Centennial Exposition, this veteran of nearly one hundred years-"almost as old as the Republic itself-delighted to wonder and view the results of advances made by the nation during his lifetime." He was quoted as saying, "I was pleased with our country's progress. I am not ashamed of being an American."⁶
     Both David's obituary and the Daily Derrick article describe him in marvilously flowery terms. Both articles refer him as "Uncle Davy Smith" and then make note of his renown and popularity. The Daily Derrick article reads "the subject of this sketch is well known to every man, woman and child in the city. Respected by all and loved and venerated by the children as well as an army of friends." The obituary states that "Uncle Davy was a man of active habits and outspoken principles. He practiced what he preached, the poor and needy were never turned away from his door, and it was said without fear of contradiction that he had not an enemy anywhere."^7,6 He was listed as the head of a family on the 1880 Census of Franklin, Venango County. The household consisted of David and his daughter Hannah.¹⁹
     Further, both his obituary and the Daily Derrick article describe David's last days. According to the Daily Derrick,

"He sits in his easy chair, his face whited by wintery blast of almost a century and cobwebbed by the wrinkles of ripened age, calmly meditating on the many scenes [several illegible words] memory of his long journey across the [several illegible words] sea of life. At times his face will brighten and his cheek color and warm; and his limbs seem to become vigorated. It is only momentary. When taking his memory for some long forgotten scene in his life of long, long ago, there is about him and upon him that immeasurable and indescribable alteration which brings back his childhood and gives him a daydream of youthful days following down through manhood, he again comes to the present and then happy vision disappears and leaves him with the thought of a well fought battle in life, in which he has gloriously conquered."

His obituary reported that "long and patiently did this grand old man sit in the fading twilight of life, awaiting the summons hence, always speaking cheerfully and trustfully speaking with knowledge born of perfect faith in our Lord and Savior."
     According to his obituary, "the end came peacefully and quitely and without a struggle, his aged spirit was gathered to his Fathers, after a long and weary journey--longer than that which generally falls to the lot of man."^7,6

     Sarah Lane was born in 1785.^1,2,3 She married David Smith, son of Stephen Smith and Maria Stroup, on 5 October 1809 in Sinking Creek Presbyterian Church, Potter Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania. They were married by Reverand William Stuart.⁴ She died in 1825 in Rockland Township, Venango County.^1,2,3

     Sarah Lane was to have been the daughter of John Lane.⁵
     David's obituary gives an insight to this "frontier love" story:

"True love, even in those days, was not permitted to run smoothly, and for some reason or other Miss Lane's guardian refused Mr. Smith's suit, but with the energy that characterized him he would not give up, and one day when the lady was in the house by herself, he came up with his horses, told her now was the time, and she, entering heartily with his plans, mounted the horse with him, rode to the neighboring preacher, and were married."⁶ Sarah "shared the burden of this early pioneer life in this section" with David.⁶

     John Carner was born on 29 January 1787 in Penn Township, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.^1,2 He was the son of John Kerner and Magdalena (?)^3,4 He married Susan Stroup, daughter of Adam Stroup and Eva (?), circa 1816.⁵ He died on 21 December 1870 in Rockland Township at age 83.^1,2 He was buried in Pine Hill Cemetery, Rockland Township.¹

     John Carner was raised in White Deer Township, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, and he lived there until circa 1815.⁶ Shortly after their marriage John Carner and Susan moved to Ferguson Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania.⁷
     John Carner and Susan Stroup moved to Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, in March 1827.^8,9 He purchased 79 6/10 acres in Rockland Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, from the Bingham Estate for $110.70.^10,9 He cut cord wood for thirty-one cents per cord to pay for it.⁹ He purchased an additional 45 3/10 acres in Rockland Township in 1855 from Elihu and Isabella Chadwick for $135.90.¹¹ He worked on his farm during the summer and during the winter chopped wood.^9,12,13

Friend Smith.^4,5,6 He died on 13 February 1917 in Cranberry Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania.⁷ He was buried in Rockland Cemetery, Rockland Township, Venango County.^8,7

     John was baptized on 18 December 1842. However, one of his sons recorded his birth date as 3 February 1843 on his death certificate. Various statements John made in his Civil War pension application and the 1900 census record suggest that he and his family did not know his birthdate. According to an affidavit he signed in 1913 he did not remember his birthdate "due to failing memory" and it was claimed that all records had been destroyed. In that 1913 affidavit, he agreed for the purposes of the military pension application to accept his birthdate as 3 February 1843. That date was based on the age he gave when he enlisted on 3 September 1863. At that time he stated that he was 20 years, 7 months old which would make his birthdate about 3 February 1843. However, various ages or dates given by John in several pension application documents over a nearly 20 year span suggest his age and birthdate were not clear. In a Declaration for Invalid Pension dated 1 August 1890, John claimed to be 49 years old suggesting he was born about 1841. In an affidavit dated 28 February 1896 he declared himself to be 56 years old or born in about 1840. And in a Declaration for Pension he signed on 31 Dec 1908, he claimed he was born on 10 April 1836 in Shropshire, England. Finally, the 1900 census which records both month and year of birth records John's birth date as unknown.^2,7,9,5
