SMITH

Joseph Smith, husband of Elizabeth Hallum, is one of many sons born to a Job Smith. It is believed that Job Smith was born about 1718 in Ireland and died 1800 in Pendleton District, SC. Job's wife was Hannah who died March 28, 1828, in Anderson District, SC. Since Job Jr., another son of Job, was known to have been born in York Co., PA, it is possible that Joseph was also born in PA, but that is not proved. However, it is known that the Smiths were living in Granville Co., SC by 1765. They were then found in St Paul's Parish, in GA prior to returning to SC, Pendleton District.
