Trying to find Smith

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

I know this is a very very wild shot, but I am trying to find anyone who might be related to my GGrandfather, William Smith who was born in Eye in Herefordshire in 1851 and died in Yarpole in 1941. (I have a copy of the newspaper cutting of his death) His father was a Samuel Smith who was born in Brimfield, Herefordshire in 1818 and mother Sarah Yapp. I believe my GGrandfather was never married to my GGrandmother, (with whom he had 4 children - William, Jack, Amy & Dora), but he later married a lady called Mary Barber and they had quite a few more children. I would love to hear from anyone who can shed any light on any of his family.
