Hi Lorraine,

Welcome to Rootschat. Looking through your list of names the following may be of interest.

In my tree I have the following...Wisdom Smith 1763-1839 son of Cain Smith and Sarah Taylor marrying Hanna Smith.
They had a daughter Bethanasia (1800-1856) who married Absolom Smith (1803-1865) and they had a daughter Adeliza (1846-1899).
She married Thomas Smith (1843-1926) and their daughter Araminta (1866-1950) was my great gandmother.
Regards,
Ashjo.



Adeliza married Thoas Smith (

You might want to ask for your post to be moved to the Travelling People board where there are many people with a wide knowledge of Travelling families.

Also take a look at the Romany and Traveller Family History Society website www.rtfhs.org.uk where you may find some useful information.

your tree is almost identical to mine.
Martha and William Gray are my g grandparents.
MY tree goes a bit crazy from Cain upwards as there are a lot of Ambrose Gray's and not all of the family seem to be travellers
My tree is public on ancestry SARAPRYOR
