Notes

"Maryland Genealogies", "Smith Family of Calvert County" by Christopher Johnston, "Capt. Richard Smith of St. Leonard's, Calvert County, died in 1714, and his will (dated 31 July 1710, proved 23 Feb'y 1714) affords proof of his parentage.

In it he appoints "my loving brother Walter Smith" sole executor and, among other dispositions, leaves to his son Walter "my dwelling house with all the lands belonging to it as my father bought of Mr. Stone." This was a tract of 350 acres, called St. Leonards, at the mouth of St. Leonard's Creek. 9 September 1663, Thomas Stone of Charles County and Mary his wife convey to Richard Smith of Calvert County a tract of 350 acres at the mouth of St. Leonard's Creek (Lib. BB). In the Calvert County Rent Roll it is entered as follows" "St. Leonards, 350 acres-surveyed 15 July 1651 for Thomas Stone Gent., near St. Leonard's Creek. Possessor (1707) Richard Smith."

In November 1683, Richard Smith Junior was appointed one of the Commissioners for laying out towns and ports in Calvert County (MD. Arch., vii, 611).

In the revolution of 1689 he sided with Lord Baltimore's government and took an active part against the revolutionists. Being captain of a company of foot, he gathered his men and marched with them, under orders from the Council, to Mattapany, where the government was then seated. But the revolutionists appeared in overwhelming force and the garrison of Mattapany was compelled to capitulate. Later, the revolutionary party issued writs for an election of Burgesses, but Captain Smith strongly urged the people of Calvert to hold no election, alleging that the writs were not issued under proper authority, and that the new Assembly was merely intended to approve the illegal acts of Goode and his associates. Michael Taney, High Sheriff of the County, and Capt. Thomas Clagett, the coroner, both refused to hold any election. Richard Smith, Michael Taney, and Cecilius Butler, who had also taken an active part against the revolutionary proceedings, were all imprisoned (MD Arch., viii, 147-149). Richard Smith made a strong protest against his illegal arrest (ibid., 149-151), and his wife Barbara went to England where she presented, 30 December 1689, a petition to the Commissioners for Trade and Plantation, with a narrative of the troubles in Maryland (ibid., 153-155). Under the new government Capt. Smith was deprived of his commission as Captain in the Calvert County Militia, and Thomas Tasker was appointed in his place (MD. Arch., xii, 242). Capt. Smith was Surveyor General of Maryland 1693-94 (MD. Arch. xix, 58; xx, 34, 37)."
