His father. Alfred Dillon Smith (his middle name may be in honor of Bishop William Dillon). is the son of Rev. Harry E. Smith of Neosho Conference who pastored at Chanute, Garnett, Haven and other locations in Neosho Conference. Alfred Smith attended Central/Huntington College and graduated from the Academy in 1917. I would not be surprised if Dean actually attended UB churches as a child since his parents lived for awhile in Chanute. I’ll be adding some pictures and more info on the Huntington Archivist Facebook page.
