Biography
Birth surname might be Schmidt rather than Smith, but no direct evidence has been found yet.
A note in Anna Maria's great-grandson George Peterson's biography says that Anna Maria's mother was kidnapped and held for seven years by Indians during the Revolutionary War and died soon after her release; no confirmation of this story has been found yet, however.

- Biography of great-grandson George Henry Peterman, in Album of Genealogy and Biography, Cook County, Illinois (Volume 1897), pp 55-56.
- "The children of Frederick Grosh & Anna Maria (Smith) Grosh". Says that the list is transcribed from a Grosh family bible, possibly belonging to Lewish Grosh and his wife Elizabeth Betts. http://familyandhealthchat.reocities.com/Heartland/valley/4251/Grosh4.html
