	Try what I did on your Pirt thread - look at 1881 for possibles as teacher or school master and work backwards At least from the Pirt thread I know the Ecclesiastical parish: St Leonard
	Researching: PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England. Researching Caven, McKill, Sutherland and Will in Scotland.

Member Since: December 2003 Posts: 96 Send Message	Looking for a Smith is like looking for a needle in a haystack especially when I dont know if he was christened Henry or Harry both popular at the time and I dont know where to start.Al I know is that he was Headmaster of St Leonards school in Bilston in 1858 and presumably would appear in the 1861 and possibly 1851 and 1871 census as a schoolmaster.So far I have not been able to make a match.Can anyone please help? Thanks Ian Crichton
