    Smile Bottoms/Johnson Witton Gilbert

    Hi Helen

    Thanks for the Census info. I already have copies of them from Kew and know about the male children - but what happened to all the girls? I've been unable to find them in the GRO indexes. Thomas & Barbara emigrated to Pensylvania, USA and had a large family out there (I'm still in touch with some of them). Robert (my gg grandfather) became a Weslyan Methodist Minister at New Branspeth.
