Looking again at the Ancestry Forum (NVLNI - contributor) has the birth certificates of both Aaron and Freedom SMITH - As Freedom Smiths' mother's maiden name is ROOF from Glosbdm- - not sure if Aaron's mother's surname is also ROOF or spelt ROOF.

This is the birth information given from a Contributor on Ancestry forum with this quote ' Other certificates may hold alternative information.

As suggested, these certificates combined, should give, mother's maiden name, father's name and occupation, plus home address.
