The stories contained in this book were compiled, in the spirit of love and fondness, for the Smith Family Reunion in July 2010. The first section, Memories of Nathaniel A Smith, is a reproduction of his own book of memories written by him. In the process of scanning and digitizing the content, minor edits or modifications have been made, such as: inserting photos, the sizing of some of the documents, and formatting the text. Lydia's self written history was very brief. As such, we have taken the liberty of integrating memories written by Marie Mason, a school report written by her granddaughter, Susan Mason Fackrell, and pieces of related history as prompted by the Personal Historian software, and the Personal Ancestral file on the Heinigers.
