Looking for Descendants of Benjamin Smith and Sarah Lycett married St Matthews, Wolverhampton with a view to tracing the Smith and Lycett ancestors.

Benjamin born Newport Salop c1865, father Charles Smith and Eliza.

Sarah born 1869 Tunstall, father William and mother maria speak.

Living family were told ancestors were true RGypsies, no evidence of this though. Smiths iron reclaimers / hawkers on marriage cert.

Any info much appreciated
