Hi natae,
I've just started poking at this Smith line in an effort to get through a brick wall. I've got an entry about one of my Smith brickwalls staying with "Vickery relatives" in Sydney, and I am wondering if they might not be the children of Isabella Smith, b 1828 to William Smith and Janet/Jennet Gowanlock. She married a Joshua Regent first and then an Edward Vickery. I'm trying to see if this family matches somehow to Isabella Smith b c1840, married 1857 in Gundagai to Thomas Duffell. I'm wondering if you might have any info that might help confirm or deny any link?
thanks,
Damien

Hi Damien sorry not much help to you as I have only just started on the family this is my nephews mums side but will let you know if I come up with anything

No worries :) Fwiw - the connection to Vickery is associated with a Sarah Jane (aka Ginny or Jenny) Duffell (b 1862, d 1953), who was recorded as being a Captain in the Salvation army, and who "had some other relatives in Sydney called Vickery". Sarah's mother was Isabella Smith (bc1840)
