Hi there,

Sorry about not posting DOB,  I have most of the marriage, death, birth certificates at home. Apart from Williams smiths birth or death he must of died on or after 1951 that's where my research seems to have stopped, I'm now trying to see if there is any connections to the todds of wolfhill and my relatives the smiths.

Many thanks j

Hi, Im not sure if there is any connections with my family.

My Family seem to have links to the Todds from Wolfhill, Ligoniel, but we are not yet sure who or how.

My G Grandfather William Smith and his Wife Susanna Smith (Nee Smith/Smyth) from Ligoniel

Children were William, James, Robert, Thomas, Mary Jane, Sarah and Maggie.

For some reason they were also known as Todds i.e My grandfather Thomas Smith was known as Tommy Todd and his Brother Robert Smith was known as Bobby Todd, Bobby lived in 186 Ligoniel Road and was killed in the early 1970's by being hit by a bus.

We were told that My Great Granda William  Smith was an orphan, sent from Edinburgh to Legoniel to be brought up by his relatives the Todds. So he was known by Todd and so the surname was passed on to his kids.

Has anyone found any connections between Smith/Todds.

The mystery continues.......

Many thanks.
