(1)  In 1771 Tithables for Loudound County, VA, Minor Smith is listed as if being in the same household as Clator Smith.  In 1775 Minor Smith is listed as if in the same household as Charles Conner.  Right after Charles Conner died, in 1778, the tithables read, "Elizabeth Conner’s Minor Smith." 

James Richardson married Jemima Smith and his military record indicates he fought under Captain Miner Smith.  See below.

(2)  "Trees" indicate Jemima Smith was born in 1754.   However, the headstone for Jemima and her husband states "J Richardson died Sept 12, 1841 aged 87 y." which would put her date of birth in 1753.  See page for Elizabeth Smith
