THOMAS SMITH. born 1876 - 26 Sydenham Buildings, Bath Died 25.3. 1920 - 17 Stuart Place, Bath Married ? to Elizabeth Brockway (b 1870 wiltshire) Any information would be appreciated on Thomas Smith, i believe the above information is correct. i don't know who his parents were or if he had any brothers and sisters. I cannot find out anything about Thomas my great great grandfather, maybe i have been not been looking in the right places. i believe he worked on the railway. denise cannon

Sue - you're wasting your time really - as Denise posted just the once ten years ago she'll hardly be looking for replies now - suggest you follow Jacqueline's advice and try sending a message to Denise - she may still be a member
