From the book History of Chautauqua County, New York, and its people, Vol. II, page 21: "Mary Love (Smith) Skiff is a member of an old and distinguished New York family, and is a great-granddaughter of Isaac Smith, who came from Massachusetts in 1802 and settled at Gorham, Ontario County, N. Y., where he remained until 1810, when he removed to Sheridan, N. Y., remaining only a short time when he came to Hanover, Chautauqua county, N. Y., and was among the first settlers of this region. He was engaged in agricultural pursuits [Smith's Mill]. He served in the navy during the War of 1812, during which time he participated in the disaster of Buffalo, [this was the Battle of Black Rock & Buffalo. It was a British victory.] and the forced march from that city induced a fever which resulted in his death. He married Miss [Roxa] Morton, by whom he had nine children: Henry, Hiram, Matilda, Rodney B., of whom further; Roxanna, Esther, Attila, Benjamin, and a child who died in infancy."
From the article "Once Upon A Time" by Marion Thomas "Mary Smith Lockwood: Famous Woman of Hanover.": Mary Smith Lockwood was born in 1831 to Henry and Beulah Blodgett Smith, granddaughter of Isaac Smith, the original settler from whose mill the sparse little community took its name."
