ReplyDeleteHe was also mine. He is the father of Milton Long Smith. Milton's son(Caines Chism Smith's grandson), Matthew Glenn Smith was one of the first appointed Rhodes Scholars. He went abroad to Oxford and obtained his Doctorate of Jurisprudence and came back to open a law practice in Fort Worth, Texas. Matthew Glenn Smith was appointed a Federal Judge sitting on the bench in Dallas. Matthew's daughter, Mary Frances Smith, was a concert pianist who attended the University of Texas. Her eldest son was my father, Matthew Glenn Smith Whitley. He was a dentist in the Rio Grande Valley. I am an English teacher. My name is Jenifer S. Whitley.
