Hi Sharron,

I have a Smollett Henderson with a mother Margaret Sked - that's as close as I get although I have no other relatives for Margaret so it could possibly be a sibling. They were from Garvald, Scotland.

cheers,

Heather

Hi Anita,
I realise this is an old post but the Smollett name has always been an issue of curiosity in our family. I was just looking at my family tree and thought I really should do a search on that name and then came across your post. Smollett Henderson was also my third great grand aunt.  I think the most recent manifestation in our family of the name was Smollett Elizabeth Anderson (known as Elizabeth) and Smollett Catherine Ross (who called herself Kate). Both these women were born in the 19thC and the name seems to have gone out of fashion since then.  I have a David Sked and a Mary Neilson for Margaret's parents but nothing yet for Alexander Henderson's parents. Let me know if you do any better!
Cheers,
Heather
