Hi Shevy, I have sent you an email and look forward to hearing from you.  After reading this thread it's opened up a whole can of worms about this guy.  If Brian reads this I'd like to chat to you too cause I found you connected on Ancestry.  When I put in Edith Smith as his wife I believe your family tree comes up.

Hi guys, I don't know if this thread is still alive or I need to start a new one but I think you are talking about my great gran dad who was "George Alfred Smith".

He was living with my great grandmother and had a daughter (my grand mother) in 1917.  I have various bits of correspondence between them, George's father etc. 

The most uncanny thing about this is I have a picture of him which is identical to the picture "crisas7" posted. (see attached) The correspondence I have is definitely "George Alfred Smith" and all the dates fit in with his army records from ancestry.co.uk.  Maybe he changed his name to Grosvenor Ashford Smith?

I would love to chat to anyone related to him to clear up who he was.  I can provide details of whats in the correspondence to confirm certain things about him.
