I notice that you are researching two Smith families from Kingsclere. I'm afraid I don't have much information on MY Smith line, but there's always hope. Here's what I have: Hannah Smith, born Kingsclere about 1774, married George Vince at Kingsclere 31 October 1797. They had at least four children: James 1805, John 1808, Charles 1810, Hannah 1812. I am descended from John. Does anything sound familiar? Thanks, and good luck to you! Patricia (Vince) Earl
