Hi Chris, I have a William smith born approx 1813 in Monmouthshire!
Married to a Sarah DAVIES or POWELL on Christmas Day 1845 in Panteague.
They had six children - Rachel and John were twins born 2/8/1849,
William born 17/3/1852, (ggranddad), Elizabeth born Feb 1854, Francis
John born 1856 and Thomas born 1860. It was Elizabeth who married
Joseph LEWIS in 1873 and then went off to Australia aboard the Highflyer
in 1878. Ring any bells, regards Mick
