Hi...my name is Marla and I am looking for living relatives in GRAVESEND,KENT,ENGLAND. My father was GEORGE ERNEST SMITH, son of GEORGE ALFRED SMITH and ELLEN BAKER. GEORGE and ELLEN married in SEP.1910, had three children....CONSTANCE, CHARLOTTE (LOTTI) and GEORGE. GEORGE ALFRED SMITH was killed during WW1 in 1917 and ELLEN immigrated to CANADA in 1920 with the children. ELLEN had a sister,EDITH, who lived in VICTORIA,BC and that is where ELLEN ended up.
GEORGE ALFRED SMITH lived in SOUTHFLEET and ELLEN BAKER was from GRAVESEND. ELLEN'S parents were THOMAS ALFRED BAKER and ALICE LOUISA HORLOCK. If there is anyone out there who is related to me, I would love to touch base with you and find out more info on our ancestors!
Waiting patiently for a response,
Marla Storie nee Smith

Hi Marla,
I am one of your living relatives. I live in Kent, although not Gravesend. We are both descended from Thomas Smith and Mary Emery, George Alfred Smith's great grandparents. Thomas and Mary were both from villages SE of Maidstone, Kent (Ulcombe and Frittenden respectively). I can see you are a DNA match to my uncle, Brian Tassell on Ancestry.
