Hi,
I have posted a help request with this before, but I was hoping someone may be able to give me some new advice that would help with my Research.
I would love to trace my 3x Great Grandfather, George Smith further back but I am really struggling.
I only have a little information about george which makes tracing him very hard!
Here is the info I all ready have:
George Smith married my 3x Great Grandmother Emma Stevens 1917 Nottingham registry office.
George's details from marriage cert is: 45 years, Widdower, coal miner father: John Smith General labourer deceased.
The witnesses were a Arthur Goulding and Florence Shaw. I have tried to see if the witnesses were related but I can't find any connection.
I did find a Florence Smith married a Joseph Shaw, but she had different father and no brother called George.
The only info I know is that George had 2 children with his first wife: John George and Walter Smith but I do not know how old they were.
I have had a look on the 1881 census but there are lots of George Smith's born c1872 with a father John.
Because i don't know where George was born would it still be possible to trace George back?
Any help would be truly appreciated.
Kelly.
