The Family Search website has four probable baptisms for a David and Elizabeth Smith family. Baptisms dates are given, no Church listed only the place name Smethwick. Would this mean the Parish Church? Have I missed something. Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks,
Megran.

Hi Donna,
Yes, they are the children, also had a son John in 1883/4. I had the Rabone Lane address, Bridge St being a new one.
Many Thanks,
Regards,
Megran.

Please could anyone with access to Holy Trinity baptisms check the following. Possibly found some more children of David and Elizabeth Smith (nee Raybould). Florence Gertrude 3Q 1880 or 1Q 1883, David 1Q or 3Q 1882. John 1Q 1884 Smethwick/Harborne. Also the death registers for a David 1Q 1884 age 36yrs (the father?) and a David 2Q 1884 aged 2yrs. (Elizabeth the mother remarried after 1884).
Many Thanks,
Megran.
Added, now found death of Stephen Thomas 3Q 1873 0yrs.
