Jean de la Chaumette (ca. 1660-c. 1728), a native of Rochechouart, France, married a woman whose name is now unknown ca. 1690. After her death, he married Elizabeth Bouvet, a widow (died ca. 1715) in 1695. The second marriage may have taken place in England, where Jean, a Huguenot, had fled. They had four sons. The family emigrated to Martinique, where Elizabeth died, then Jean and three sons moved to Stafford County, Virginia, in 1720. The spelling of the surname was altered to "de la Shumate," then "Shumate;" other variations also exist. Many descendants remain in Kentucky, with others in Illinois, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and other states.

Our Smith family history extends back over 600 years. Here are listed those Smith family ancestors who lived through the bubonic plague in England, the cholera, typhus, crossed the ocean in wooden ships, survived the American Revolutionary War, Native American attacks, the War of 1812, the War Between the States, World War I, and World War II. They are pioneers, patriots, and adventurers with a deep sense of self sufficiency and craftsmanship. They carved out the wilderness with their bare hands, simple tools, and raised children to have confidence, respect for others, and faith in God.
