Note
Henry Smith Came from England in 1637, bringing his wife Elizabeth and his two eldest sons. He settled in Dedham, where he was burned out in 1641, as we learn from the records of that town. He came to Medfield in 1651-52, and took up his house lot on South Street, at the foot of Mr. Wilson’s field. He seems to have had the confidence of his townsmen, as he served them on the board of selectmen thirteen years. His wife Elizabeth died in 1670. He died in 1687.

Samuel inherited his father's house lot and buildings. He married in 1669 Elizabeth Turner. When the Indians made their attack upon the town, Elizabeth took her youngest child, then a year and a half, in her arms, and ran toward the fort. When a little way from the house, the savages overtook her, and killed her by a blow on the head. The child was thrown on the ground, stunned, and left for dead, but recovered consciousness, and, when found, had crept to the dead body of its mother. One year from that day, Samuel married Sarah, widow of John Bower, who had also been killed by the Indians. He died in 1691, his widow in 1704.
