Hi Everyone I hope this isn't too much of a long shot but I'm seeking information about William Smith and his parents, siblings etc, of Dumbleton. There is a William Smith, born Dumbleton 1776 to Joseph and Elizabeth Smith (IGI Batch Numbers) who married Elizabeth Wood in Eldersfield 1804 ( Parish Records Transcripts ). Son Thomas was born Eldersfield 1806. William ( occupation Agricultural Labourer ) and Elizabeth were living at Birtsmorton at the time of the 1841 Census. In the 1851 census William, then Widower, Father and Pauper, native place Eldersfield, was living with son Thomas (a Thatcher ) and family. I know my G-G-Grandfather was this Thomas so I'm thinking/hoping father William is the one I've found in the records. If he is, there seems to be quite a few siblings listed. I look forward to hearing from anyone with information, hopefully a fellow descendant. Maureen Glover
