Below is a description of the tree of James and Charity Smith of Baughurst and their 13 children. It provides some new links not on the Kingsclere families website at the moment. The aim is to give hope to those who have encountered a Smith brickwall in their own trees. Since my own family is Smith it is easier working the other way. It resolves which Charlotte Smith was the mother of Matilda Smith. Witnesses at weddings gave clues. However for example the number of Joseph Smiths and uncertain dates of birth from the 1841 census means it is going to get very hard in the previous generations to resolve who is who in the Smiths.
