  • Notes 
    • Lauritz Andersen Smith was born in Jæren 12/3 1680. He did not inherit any of his father's artistic talents, but at least had other skills. He was determined to go the trade route so, as a 17-year-old boy, began his education in Madame Elisabeth Seehusen's merchant's and ship's shipping business. There he met Madame Seehusen's granddaughter Johanne Margrethe Leight, whom he married when she was 17 years old. When Madame Seehusen died, Laurits Smith took over her business. He had great skill for the day and expanded the big business considerably so that eventually it became the city's largest. Lauritz A Smith died November 22, 1758.
