Hi Chris Fanny, baptised Stroud, Gloucestershire 1828, maried John Chandler 1853, and went out to Adelaide, February, 1854 thence after 1 year to NSW. I was lucky Fanny's Death Certificate was incredibly fulsome.

Thanks for the quick response Rosemary, I have many Smarts in NSW, but unfortunately no Fanny. You still may want to keep me in mind if you find that there were more branches of the SMART family there - in particular a George Donary SMART who married Esther SHEATHER.
