"Copied from notes of James Edgar Smith" - "Isaac Smith, Sr., a millwright, after marriage to Rachel Wintermute, settled in Blairstown Township, N.J., buying a farm, also erecting a grist mill, the little settlement being named Smith's Mills,
later Painter's Mills, then Kalarama."

"Wintermute Family History" by J.B. Wintermute, 1900 - date of birth July 14, 1778.



"History of Sussex & Warren Counties" pub. 1881, compiled by James P. Snell, p. 640 - "Blairstown....The exact date of its settlement by civilized man will probably never be known, but there can be no doubt about its being among the earlier
settlements within the limits of Warren County. The original name of the place, so far as we have been able to learn, was "Smith's Mills." Many years before the Revolutionary war a man of that familar name-Smith-had a large grist mill and a
saw-mill on the grounds now belonging to Hon. John I. Blair." (Not this Isaac Smith) P. 653 - "The next grist-mill in this township was built by Isaac Smith in 1831-32, now owned by the heirs of Martin Painter, and know as 'Painter's Mills,"
and located south of Walnut Valley Post Office."
