Capt. Daniel N. Smith Family Notes

This file consists of an envelope postmarked 1982 from Jerry Grant of Great Barrington, MA but no letter. Charles Morse has one sheet of notes pertaining to descendents of Capt. Daniel N. Smith who moved from Sudbury to Warwick in 1814. Relates how his 6 children in 1864 held a reunion and climbed Mt. Grace and engraved their names and bible verses on a large granite rock. Morse stated in 1982 that the letters are cut deep and will be legible 200 yrs hence....but in 1962 he has penciled a note that the original inscriptions are no longer legible. In Morse's Biography of a Town, pp.139-140 tells how Smith is believed to be the inventor of a revolving timber plane.
