Just wanted to say that I am having an ever-deepening respect for the scope, and depth of your research !!!!!!! The name SMITH always jumps off the page at me .. BUT .. have no connection to this lot . Just wanted to say, that if you ever get involved with the Irish SMITHS, of Tiny, Tay, Midland, Wyebridge, etc .. just give me a whistle !!!! I started, years ago, with HEBER SMITH, Mayor of Barrie, and later M.P. for Simcoe Centre, and a Second cousin, once removed. He told me that when SMITHs married SMITHs, even the SMITHs gave up trying to sort themselves out !!! However, believe that I have made the necessary connections. My Great-Grandmother was MARY JANE SMITH . ( from County ANTRIM, Ireland) now, ain't that an original name. AGAIN, thanks for your input .. It is always appreciated ! Paul Robins
