Smith connection???

Josiah Lane Oliver was given the address of 3 Browns Court on his baptism. Josiah Smith born 23rd Aug 1863 son of John and Elizabeth Smith!!!!!!!! was also given the same address and baptised on the same day as Josiah Oliver, John Smith was a Carman.


Think we need to trace the Smith family!!!!
