SMITH This name is common to all lands. Every country that has its workers in metal has its smiths, and from this occupation came the surname Smith, with its varied forms of spell- ing. The family was an early one in the American colonies, but there seems to be no clews by which the earlier families can be connected with William Smith, of Vermont, founder of the line in Erie county, New York, herein recorded, and a pioneer settler of the town of Concord. Since his advent the family have been prominent in the public and business life of the town.
Governor William Smith came from the state of Vermont to the town of Concord, Erie county, New York, in the spring of 1810. He obtained his title at the time of the raising of the first liberty pole at the Four Corners, a mile east of Springville, which has ever since been known as Liberty Pole Corners. The time was July 4, about 1819. The ceremony of raising a flag to the top of the long, grace- ful pole was accompanied by the firing of guns, the cheers of the crowd and the music
of fife and drum. There was an absence, however, of notables, and to supply the de- ficiency titles were invented for many of those present, and a list of the gathering included "President Adams," "General Knox," "Gov- ernor Smith," etc. To many of these pioneers these names ever afterward clung, and they were known to rising generations by no other. The writer, after searching in vain for the state which elected William Smith as its gov- ernor, applied to a descendant of the "Gov- ernor," and received the foregoing explana- tion.
William Smith was a man of tall, command- ing presence, and was once asked by an In- dian whom he had asked to join in a social glass, "Be's you the governor of New York state?" The governor replied in his heavy, guttural voice, "Not exactly, but I am gov- ernor of Dutch Hollow." His farm was lots fifty-six and fifty-seven on Cattaraugus Creek, where he built a log house and in the fall of 1810 moved his family there. He was a very strong, energetic man and in a few years had made many improvements. In 1816 or 1817 he sold his farm receiving his pay in silver, of which there was nearly half a bushel. He then located on lot forty-nine and later made several removals in the same locality. He died December 29, 1853, and his wife Hannah died October'9, 1857, aged eighty years. Sons: Stephen, William and Calvin, all lived and died in Concord. Daugh- ters : Deborah, married Samuel Wilcox and died November 15, 1850, in Concord, aged fifty years, five months; Sally, married Clem- ent Carney and moved to Michigan.
(II) Calvin, son of "Governor" . William Smith, was born in Vermont, September 30, 1803, died in Concord, Erie county, New York, February 4, 1879, and was buried at Block Schoolhouse cemetery, later his re- mains being moved to Maplewood cemetery. He came to Erie county with his father in 1810 and spent his after life in Concord. He was a farmer owning land on Sharp street, three miles distant from Springville, which he purchased and cleared. As he prospered in business he added to his holdings until he had two hundred and twenty-five acres under cultivation. He was a hard-working, upright man, an active member of the Free Baptist church, and a good citizen. He married, March 12, 1826, Harriet Mayo, born in Mas- sachusetts, November 4, 1809, coming with

The Rath family of Jamestown RATH traces back, not alone through its own head, Warren M. Rath, but on the distaff side through Mrs. Rath to the Willsons. Mrs. Rath's father and Nathan Willson's father were brothers.
(I) The first of the Rath name to appear in New York state was the grandfather of Warren M. Rath, of Jamestown, Casper Rath, who migrated from Germany to America many years back, bringing with him his fam-
ily, and settling in Western New York. The time of his coming is not certainly known.
(II) Casper Friedrich, son of Casper Rath, was born in Germany, but was brought up, educated and lived the greater part of his life in Buffalo, New York, where he died March 16, 1898, at the age of fifty-six. He was in the live stock business, handling horses, cattle and poultry, largely at Buffalo, for more than twenty-five years. He was eighteen years of age when the civil war broke out, and he en- listed at Buffalo and saw three years' service in the Union army. After the war he mar- ried, at Lancaster, New York, Mary Nebe- lacker, a native of that place, but like himself of German lineage. They were the parents of nine children, namely : Catherine, Annie, Nich- olas, William, Frederick, Joseph, Warren M., of whom further; Mamie, Carolina.
(III) Warren M., son of Casper Friedrich and Mary (Nebelacker) Rath, was born in Buffalo, New York, September 26, 1876. His education was obtained in the city and Catho- lic parochial schools of Buffalo. As a youth he learned the candy maker's trade, serving nine years with A. W. Mauser to perfect his knowledge of it. After he had mastered it there, he went to other cities and visited many leading factories in the candy line. He spent considerable time in the great factory of C. F. Gunther in Chicago. He had experience in fourteen different departments of the business of John S. Huyler. He visited at different periods in the line of his vocation Detroit, St. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati, Milwaukee, Cleve- land, Buffalo, Albany, New York, Boston and Portland. It is this wide experience that gives him fame as an expert in the business. Mr. Rath left the Huyler employ in 1901 to set up in business for himself. This he did in Philadelphia, at 1609 Susquehanna avenue, and here he flourished for six years. He came to Jamestown, New York, in April, 1910, and opened up a handsome place, a candy store and factory together, in the Lilli- bridge Block, which is the finest confectionery and ice cream parlor in Western New York. Here Mr. Rath has been selling the highest grade goods on the market. He has also opened (1912) another confectionery store in the New Samuels Block. During the time that he has been established in Jamestown, Mr. Rath has strikingly displayed his business ability. He is highly regarded, and is con- sidered one of the most prominent and prom-
1000

ising of the younger business element of the town.
Mr. Rath married, in Jamestown, June 28, 1904, Jennie Amelia, born in Lyons, Kansas, November 30, 1882, daughter of Sanford Isaac and Mary Ann (Nicholas) Willson. She was educated and brought up there also, while her father was engaged in business in that part of the country. Having traveled over the country and assisted her husband in the business, having served four years her- self in the trade here in Jamestown, she has been of invaluable aid to Mr. Rath in his undertakings. She is a member of the Thoughtful Circle of King's Daughters, of the Jamestown Congregational Church Bible Class and of the Daughters of Liberty. Both Mr. and Mrs. Rath are members of the Con- gregational church.
Sanford Isaac Willson, father of Mrs. War- ren M. Rath, was born in English Hill, James- town, March 3, 1846, died in that city, De- cember 23, 1903. He was educated at James- town Academy, and spent his early life in Chautauqua county. He was in the lumber line for years there, and had a thoroughly practical knowledge of it, and was specially expert. After having operated in Western New York and Pennsylvania, he went out to Lyons, Kansas, took up land, and started farming. Some ten years later he sold this land and went to live in Lyons village, where he was superintendent for the Martin Lum- ber Company. There he remained about twenty years. In 1899 he came back to James- town, and until he retired was with the Pearl City Veneer Works. He was a Democrat in early life, but later became a Socialist. He was a member of the Odd Fellows in Lyons, superintendent of the Sunday school of the Reformed church, and in other ways was ac- tive in good work.
