Lord, behold our family here assembled.
We thank you for this place in which we dwell,
For the love that unites us,
For the peace accorded to us this day,
For the hope with which we expect the morrow;
For the health, the work, the food and the bright skies
That make our lives delightful;
For our friends in all parts of the earth.
Amen.

2004 Smith Family Reunion visit

Hi all. My wife Kathy and I along with Kathy's mother Modean Ward Bramlett came to the reunion and enjoyed seeing everyone. Our link to the Smith's is through Albert Smith's sister, Maggie Smith Ward. We all had a good time. We took lots of pictures and I will post some soon. This is a great blog with lots of good info. I encourage everyone to visit and post comments. We don't get to Smith reunion too often, but when we do, it's always fun.

We live in Denton, TX. We have two children, Bryan, who lives with his wife Becky and son, Ben in Colorado Springs, and daughter Amy and husband Tony and son Bowen, with another one on the way and who are relocating to Austin.

I am very interested in genealogy. I have some family history on the Smith's which I will post here soon. The Smith's, as far as I've been able to tell, came to Illinois in the 1820's from possibly Virginia.
