Snakey smith and sister sibby, but worth a read anyway, has quite a few family names in the book.

i think its in the 30s, theres lots of others mentioned throughout the book inc boswells, hearns/herons and lees with quite a few first names to go with them, might be of interest to alot of people who use this site.

earnest smith was definately not snakey cooper as snaky was an uncle to brian grace who was selinia son,selinia being earnests younger daughter.black lizzie and selinia were sisters..we think now snaky may have been levi smith earnests younger brother but we cant be sure as yet.it is an on going enquiry
