Interestingly there is only one Augustine Smith or Smyth recorded in the hearth taxes at any date between 1662 and 1674. If you want the details, have a look at this link http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/suffolk/2007-08/1186937880 and then email me off list.

I've posted this in the past but so far have had no takers. I'm looking for a marriage for which I have only partial information. Jane/Jone/Joan/Johanna maiden name unknown m. abt 1670 of Suffolk __?__ Smyth the only extra clue I have is that they had a son Augustin b. abt 1671. that name should be easiest to find, though at that early date there's a good chance that only Augustin's father is listed in the baptism I also realise that records were spotty at times, esp. during civil wars, but without actually having access to the films (my fhs is just not what it should be, I've given up even trying any more) I won't know what's there. best, Cornelia BODY
