Greetings from Canada. My paternal grandfather, William Smith, had a cottage at Blacksmiths (Blacksmith's?) about 60 years ago. I too would be interested in the origin of the name. Will Smith, Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. ----- Original Message ----- From: "MargM" <genknut@optusnet.com.au> To: <AUS-NSW-Hunter-Valley@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, March 19, 2007 6:40 PM Subject: [HV] Blacksmith's beach ? > We were camping at Blacksmith's Beach over last weekend > in the heat and humidity on Friday and heavy rain Saturday > night with a group of friends.
