Father of Thomas Smith born Hanslope, Northamptonshire, England

[:sjl]

Nicola:

thanks for the point by point explanation.

I have ordered the marriage and deaths from Buckinghamshire.

just waiting for the confirmation and to send the monies.

have ordered the death certificate for Eliza Smith, but made the mistake of using An__try.....so it has cost me 3 times the price you had suggested....

realized it too late....but am trying to cancel the order.

either way it is ordered whether it goes through there or through the GRO...

have ordered the birth certicate for Joseph Smith....

********

I am TRYING to do as you have suggested, with just the one little hicup ...grr!! but live and learn.

will keep you apprised.

once again I appreciate everyone's help, and for leading me down the garden path, have never tried for such an indepth research before...so I guess that was why I was dragging my feet....but now that I have bit the bullet....I MIGHT be more willing.....to spend money in the future....

and maybe not so dense as to how to confirm things, but really don't think I would have got to this point without EVERYONE'S help....I was happy thinking that he lived in Potterspury...

Happy Thanksgiving or Columbus day to all...if neither, have a nice day.

Sincerely,

Sharon Lamb
