There are 113. I found this by searching for "Smith" at cmohs.org. It returned 115 name however there are two recipients with the first name "Smith".

I counted 52 at the above source. Page 5 and up lists many non-Smith names whose medals are located at the Smithsonian Institution or other instances of Smith on the individual citation pages.
