Benjamin Franklin Smith Pattison was born in Texas in 1857 according to his death certificate informant, Violet Smith McDade, his sister.

Although the Smith family in Waller county is large and well known, it has been difficult to locate his parents due to various name changes from Christian conversion, or language differences. Surnames in records include: Smith, Gow, McGowan, Cohen, Poldo, Padilla, Pattison, MacPhail, Pauley/Polly, McPhail, McVale, McFale, Polson, and Paul. The name is of Scots origin from a man named John Angus MacPhail aka Juan Antonio Padilla.

Ben is my 2nd great grand father. His son, John Henry Smith born 1887 in Waller County is my ggf! Ben was married at least twice. John Henry's mother was named Mariah Hillyard. She and Ben were married in Grimes County, Texas. In this record his name is written as Harrison Poldo. They split up and both remarried.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or any family relation with Ben.
