"Enoch Smith, Mrs. Jameson's father, had land cleared in 1775, and in 1776 raised the first crop of corn ever raised by a white man in Montgomery Co.  His patent began on "the top of a little mountain," on the present site of Mt. Sterling, a single Indian mound.  He built a brick house, date unknown, which is now occupied, just outside of Mt. Sterling.  Mr. Smith was a brother of Hom. Daniel Smith, one of the Virginia commissioners who ran the boundary line between Virginia and North Carolina, and later was United States senator from Tennessee.  Enoch Smith was a sone of Henry and Sarah (Crosby) Smith, born June 20, 1730, in Stafford Co., Va.  He was an ancestor of Andrew Jackson Donelson and Daniel Smith Donelson of Tennessee."
