Trying to find Smith

Smith - what a name to research! My Great Grandfather was Ernest W. Smith - on 1881 census living at 18 Butter Market Ipswich St Lawrence Suffolk aged 15 and son of Walter A. Smith (photographic artist & landascape) and Emily M Smith (artist in oils). He married by Great Grandmother Eliza Welton - she was born in Wreningham, Norfolk in about 1867.. Ernest had a brother William and a sister Beatrice. Any help would be appreciated. Ernest and Eliza went on to have about 7 children, Ethel, Violet, Gladys (my nan), Herbert, Leslie, Leonard and one other son. Any help would be appreciated as I have come to a blank.
