The Smith Family is well known to the people of Austin County with branches dating back to 1824 in Austin's Colony. Betty Smith Meischen owns the property with her two brothers AJ and Ricky Smith. Our family settled in Austin County in 1824, some of the earliest colonists with Stephen F. Austin. Ten of our direct ancestors were in Texas during the Colonial era and another handful during the Republic. Our 2nd great grandmother Rebecca Bell was born in Austin County, Texas (then Mexico) in 1832. We descend from the Bells that founded Bellville. Our father, AJ Smith started a flooring business in 1946 in Bellville. It later turned in to a furniture and appliance store also. Betty and her brothers grew up working in the family business and continued to do so up until it was sold in 2008. Our mother and father, Betty and her two brothers all graduated from Bellville High school as well as our three children. Betty has written and published 10 books, largely on Texas History. She writes a column in the New Ulm Enterprise entitled Reflections. She is a member of the Daughters of the Republic of Texas and the Daughters of the American Revolution. She and her husband Del live near Round Top.

In the days when there were no cell phones, video games etc. our family enjoyed going to "The Farm" to fish, ride horses, swim and walk through the trails we cut. We looked forward to the weekends when we could go there and enjoy this beautiful place. We had a herd of cattle for forty years but the property is now leased to a local rancher where he still runs cattle. This is a great scenic, outdoor property.

Fresh air! Stars at night! Getting back to nature. Hiking the trails. Looking for wildlife, fishing and relaxation. Open porches where there is a breeze and pretty pastoral views. We like to play dominoes in the evenings on the porches as well as grilling outside for dinner. Just sitting on the front porch in the swing glider, enjoying the firepit and watching the sunset is a wonderful thing to do. That cup of coffee in the morning sitting on the porch and watching the morning mist over the lake and looking for the different species of birds make this place special in our hearts.
