Historia
Henry Smith, a politicia, lawyer, and land speculator, was born 23 April 1812 in London, England. He immigrated to Canada with his parents before 1818. The family settled in Montreal, where Henry attended Benjamin Workmans private school, and, after they moved to Kingston in the early 1820s, he completed his education at the Midland District Grammar School. He studied law under Christopher Hagerman and Thomas Kirkpatrick, and was admitted to the bar in 1834. He was appointed QC in 1846, and became a lwayer for the Grand Trunk Railway in Kingston in 1853.
In 1841, Smith was elected to the Legislative Assembly for Frontenac and held the seat until 1861, when he decided to leave the Conservative party. After two subsequent failed runs, he regained his seat in 1867, but fell ill shortly thereafter. He died in Kingston, Ontario on 18 September 1868.
