GRAVESEND/NORTHFLEET

[marlastorie1]

Ok...I KNOW there must be some SMITHS living in this area...I THINK at least one of them would be related to GEORGE ALFRED SMITH who died in WWI in 1917. He married ELLEN BAKer in 1910. GEORGE was my Grandfather and I am having a heck of a time sorting through the hundreds of SMITHS in this area. I know his Dads name was CHAS/Charles and that his father was THOMAS...that is as far as I have gotten. PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE.......if anyone out there is my relative or knows of someone who is a relative, I would love to hear from you! I just want to connect with my family and learn more about the SMITH side. Thanks  and I will wait patiently for a reply.
Sincerely,
Marla in Canada
