Some of these names appear to be actual signatures while others are clearly written by the same person as other names around them. The Randolph County petition suffered from similar challenges including some signers that would be under 21 years old. Regardless, this is quite a list of northern Moore County residents during the late 1780's.] |

Everett Smith was born in 1751, in Moore County, NC, lived for a while in Georgia before moving to Mississippi and settling on Fair River. He died in 1822, in Lawrence County, Miss., the part which became Lincoln in 1870. Among his children was, William Smith, known as "One Hand Bill." Some of the Smiths from both Moore and Montgomery Counties in North Carolina migrated to Georgia. Among them were Everett, Gabriel, Jesse, and William." DESCENDANTS OF CAPTAIN BILLY SMITH, by Gregory S. Smith. FURTHER EXPLANATION IS GIVEN ON PAGES ONE AND TWO OF THE BOOK. William Smith was born February 26, 1763, Moore county, North Carolina, enlisted for service in the Revolutionary War in 1780, in Ninety-Sixth District, South Carolina. After the War he lived in Moore and Montgomery Counties in North Carolina. The Patterson's also migrated from Moore county, North Carolina. William Smith's wife was apparently Sarah, and they were involved in many land transactions in Franklin Co., Georgia, some of which involved the Kees Family. William Smith was probably a brother of Everett Smith, and is a likely candidate for the father of Captain Billy Smith." Per Gregory S. Smith.
