South Carolina family. Thomas Smyth (1808-1873), pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church of Charleston, S.C., was born in Belfast, Ireland and immigrated to America with his family in 1830. He married Margaret Milligan Adger (1807-1884), daughter of James Adger (1777-1858) and Sarah Elizabeth Ellison (1783-1856).
