Hi there

I have been researching my family history for about 3 years now and have found ancestors from Wales, Ireland and England, and have got back as far as the 1680's on one bracnh but still can't pin down my great grandfather who was supposedly born just 10 miles from where I live :roll: but then with a name of James Smith that is to be expected.

Hi Simon, Welcome to the forum
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Hi Simon and welcome to the forum.

Did that James Smith have any brothers or sisters with odder names you could track instead?

Hi peterd and Maths Girl

Thank you for your kind welcomes to the forum

MG at the moment I have not found any brothers or sister for him. I will ask properly in the brick wall section once I have finished going through the local parish registers for the second time.
