I have been trying for TEN years to find the BIRTH of my GF Arthur Albert Smith !!!
Various censuses give Wales/S.Wales/even Neath (although that's unlikey)....even Wales may be unlikely?
However, TWO sources have his DOB as 16 June 1872.
- His G.P.O. pensions records
- The 1939 Register ........ incidentally, I have written a book (The Lapidary, on Amazon), a biography of my father Thomas Arthur Smith, and would obviously like to include his father.
Further detailed info, and possible clues, are included on my 'Smith Family Tree' on the Ancestry website (if you can find it .... good luck with that! 😂)
I hardly expect miracles after all this time, and my eternal research..... but hey!..who knows?
Thanks in advance to the Community (from a Newbie Member),
kind regards,
Peter Arthur Smith
