Smith maried Eliza Diamond and they settled in Ontario, Canada, along with James Diamond and wife Abigail (Wilson) Diamond, about 1835. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Also interested in clearing up confusion over children of James and Abigail. Apparently children born in Ireland were William, Elizabeth (Eliza) and John. Canadian census shows William and Eliza, born in Ireland and Mary Jane, born in Canada 1837. No further record of John. Did he die in infancy in Ireland?
