JOHN S. DYE AND JOHN SMITH DYE - SAME PERSON?

Pete Smith writes: "I have a numismatic puzzle for our panel of
experts:

John S. Dye is known as the publisher of counterfeit detectors
from 1847 to 1879. He died shortly before publication of Dye's
Coin Encyclopaedia in 1883.

John Smith Dye is the author of books on the Lincoln assassination
and on U. S. Grant published around 1866 to 1868.

Are these the same person? Speculation is fine but I am looking
for proof."
