Notes from D. Haley Gomez
Ruben Smith enlisted in the Virginia Militia at the age of 17 in the Revolutionary War, serving under Capt. Robert Beal and Col. William Heth (or Heath). He was wounded, captured by the British, and then escaped through the aid of his sweetheart, Betsy Rice Smith, according to the D.A.R. records. Her father, Edward Smith, was a Tory and probably [was] opposed to the relationship. They married in 1782 and must have reconciled with her family, as they are remembered in Edward Smith's will of 1815. By the end of his life, Reuben was so enfeebled by the wound in his face from the war that his son, John Wesley Smith, ran the family plantation for his father and mother. Reuben and Betsy had fourteen children.Reuben married Smith, Elizabeth Betty on 4 Nov 1782 in Goochland Co., Virginia. Elizabeth (daughter of Smith, Edward and Rice, Sarah) was born on 2 Feb 1766 in Albermerle, Va; was christened on 2 Feb 1766 in Louisa, Va. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
