Her suggestion:
You state that James O. Smith, son of Larkin Smith, married a "Miss Arnold". He was married to Miranda Elizabeth Arnold, daughter of Chesley and Susannah Andrews Arnold (my gggg-grandparents). You may know that Susannah's aunt, Hannah Andrews, was married to Robert Smith, Jr. So there was more than one marriage between our families. Through your memorials, I now understand something of how the Arnold family probably came to be members of the Methodist church (down to my father's generation) even though they had been Church of England in Virginia. I believe Robert and Larkin Smith's faith was an influence.

Larkin Smith, Sr. was a veteran of the American Revolution. A VA memorial marker [cenotaph] was placed in the Mt. Pleasant Church Cemetery beside the VA memorial marker for his brother, Robert Smith, Jr. who was also a veteran of the American Revolution. See: 74188295&
