Confederate Veteran, Volume 25, Page 43
"When J. F. Smith and Miss R. C. Wingo were married on September 27, 1866 they went on to Texas to make their home in that big state. They stopped first on Blossom Prarie in Lamar County, for two years, then on to Red River County for another two years, locating permanently in Hopkins County in 1870. He is now president of the Como Mercantile Company, Inc., with which he has been connected for thirty-six years. He is also interested in the lignite mines there and has taken the lead in their development."

"Mr. and Mrs. Smith were born, reared, and married near Jacksonville, Ala., and the first year of his service as a confederate soldier was with the 7th Alabama Infantry, in Capt. Bob Draper's company; was afterwards with the 58th Alabama Infantry, in the company of Capt. S. D. McCelland; was captured at Missionary Ridge and kept in prision at Rock Island for sixteen months. He would like to hear from any of his old comrades now living."

"This happy couple celebrated their golden wedding anniversary on September 27, 1916. They have nine children living-five boys and four girls-thirty-five grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. On January 20, 1917, Mr. Smith will have rounded out seventy-four years. Mrs. Smith was seventy-one years old on October 27, 1916."
