Context: James Martin Smith (December 12, 1892 – May 24, 1970) was an American civic, business, and religious leader in Arizona.  The youngest Child of American frontiersman and Mormon Pioneer, Lot Smith, Smith was born in Tuba City, Arizona Territory, but spent most of his life in Central, Arizona.  His mother, [Diantha Elizabeth Mortensen Smith], Lot Smith's 8th wife, moved to Central after his father's death in a grazing conflict with Navajo Indians.  He served in various county, state, and religious leadership positions, including Chairman of the Arizona State Highway Commission, Senator in the Arizona State Legislature, and LDS Bishop of the Central Ward.  He ran two unsuccessful Arizona gubernatorial campaigns in 1948 and 1950.  He married [Winnie Elizabeth Bigler] in 1913 and was the father of nine children, eight sons and one daughter. James Harlan (June 22, 1800 – February 18, 1863) was an attorney and politician, a U.S. Representative from Kentucky.  He also served as US Attorney for Kentucky and, prior to that, as Kentucky Secretary of State and Attorney General, the first to be elected to the latter office statewide. John Marshall Harlan (June 1, 1833October 14, 1911) was an American lawyer and politician from Kentucky who served as an associate justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. David Steele, Sr. (2 November 1803 – 29 June 1887) was a Reformed Presbyterian or Covenanter minister.  He was born in Upper Creevagh, Donegal, Ireland to David Steel and Sarah Gailey.  His father was a fourth-generation descendant of Capt. John Steel of Lesmahagow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, a local leader in the Covenanter uprising of 1679.  His grandparents, on both sides of the family, were Covenanters.  His paternal grandfather, John Steel, had resided in Fanet.  He moved to Creevaugh sometime prior to the birth of his grandson.  His maternal grandfather, Andrew Gailey, resided in Killylastin.  His father died when he was an infant, in February, 1805.  According to Steele, his only recollection of his father was conducting family worship.  Next to the Bible, Steele claimed the greatest impression made on him, in his youth, was Thomas Boston's "Four-fold State of Man" and "A Cloud of witnesses for the royal prerogatives of Jesus Christ".  The latter work is an account, published in 1714, of the Scottish martyrs who perished during the persecutions, known as the "Killing Times", during the reigns of Charles II and James VII.  In his seventeenth year [1820], he entered the Academy in Londonderry, where he pursued his studies for three years, including the study of languages. Robert James Harlan (December 12, 1816 - September 21, 1897) was a civil rights activist and politician in Cincinnati, Ohio in the 1870s-1890s.  He was born a slave but was allowed free movement and employment on the plantation of Kentucky politician James Harlan, who raised him and may have been his father or half-brother.  He became interested in horse racing as a young man and moved to California during the 1849 Gold Rush where he was very successful.  In 1859 he moved to England to import racehorses from America and race them in England.  He returned to the United States in 1869 during reconstruction.  He became friends with Ulysses S. Grant and became involved in Republican politics.  For the rest of his life, he was involved in city, state, and national African-American civil rights and political movements.  In 1870 he became colonel of the Second Ohio Militia Battalion, a black state militia battalion in Cincinnati.  In 1886, he became a member of the Ohio House of Representatives. The 1838 Nova Scotia Census shows James Franey and Patrick Franey enumerated in Sherbrooke Settlement, Lunenburg Co.  They are listed as the second and third household respectively.  The first head of household listed in Sherbrooke is John Butler who was the father of Mary Butler, wife of the above Patrick Franey.  Nearby Butler Lake was named after John Butler.  The fourth head of household listed is John Connell, husband of James Franey's daughter Ann.  The fifth head of household listed is William Tobin, husband of James Franey's daughter Margaret.  The Franey name was also given to nearby Franey Lake, Franey Brook, and Franey Hill.  The Franey family originated in New Ross, County Wexford, Ireland, arriving in Nova Scotia supposedly around 1824 when Patrick was a boy aged ten years.  Patrick had two other sisters - Margaret who married Patrick Donnellan in Newfoundland before being one of the original settlers in Dalhousie Settlement in 1817, and Mary who married Charles McClintock in 1835.  Donnellan Stillwater in East Dalhousie and McClintock Brook on the Dalhousie Road are named for those two families.  Donnellan Brook on the Bay of Fundy is named after Patrick and Eleanor's son John Donnellan who married Anne Ogilvie.  By the taking of the 1911 census, the Franeys had all left Franey Corner.  Patrick Franey had eleven children.  Of his sons, Martin's family were living in East Dalhousie, John's family was living in Weston, David and Albert were in Kentville, James, Ned, and Will were living in Aylesford, and Robert had moved to Washington State. James Bennett McCreary (July 8, 1838 – October 8, 1918) was an American lawyer and politician from the US state of Kentucky.  He represented the state in both houses of the U.S. Congress and served as its 27th and 37th governor.  Shortly after graduating from law school, he was commissioned as the only major in the 11th Kentucky Cavalry, serving under Confederate Brigadier General John Hunt Morgan during the American Civil War.  He returned to his legal practice after the war.  In 1869, he was elected to the Kentucky House of Representatives where he served until 1875; he was twice chosen Speaker of the House.  At their 1875 nominating convention, state Democrats chose McCreary as their nominee for governor, and he won an easy victory over Republican John Marshall Harlan.  With the state still feeling the effects of the Panic of 1873, most of McCreary's actions as governor were aimed at easing the plight of the state's poor farmers.
