I am trying to find details of my great great grandparents James Smith (c1824) who married Eliza (maiden name unknown). They had 5 boys (Walter, John, Alfred, Thomas, Fredrick (my gt grandfather), and 2 girls Emily and Eliza. I believe they lived in Halstead, Essex. I would appreciate any info regarding James' parents and also Eliza's parents.

Thank you for your help
