	You will need to compare professions addredded witnesses to work out the correct one. Also get to the the ones that are not yours to help eliminate possible records. DO you have later census records to give some markers? Try this one to start with 1851 census - Address: 2, Ely Place, Bethnal Green, Tower Hamlets SMITH, Fredrick Head Married M 50 1801 Cordwainer East Dereham Norfolk VIEW SMITH, Elizabeth Wife Married F 33 1818 Bethnal Green VIEW SMITH, Eliza Daughter Unmarried F 14 1837 Bethnal Green VIEW SMITH, Henry Son Unmarried M 10 1841 Bethnal Green VIEW SMITH, John Son Unmarried M 8 1843 Bethnal Green VIEW SMITH, David Son Unmarried M 4 1847 Bethnal Green VIEW SMITH, Emma Daughter Unmarried F 1 1850 Bethnal Green VIEW SMITH, William Son Unmarried M 29 1822 Cordwainer Bethnal Green 1841 census - Address: Ely Place, St Matthew Bethnal Green, Tower Hamlets SMITH, Frederick M 40 1801 VIEW SMITH, Elizabeth F 25 1816 Middlesex VIEW SMITH, William M 20 1821 Middlesex VIEW SMITH, Alfred M 13 1828 Middlesex VIEW SMITH, Henry M 0 (6 months) 1841 Middlesex
