Thanks. Certainly something to look into. St Neots PR's are not online it seems, well only from about 1815 and they seem to be nonconformists. So John Smith was 48 when he died, so born c1791 so would be similar age to my James Smith.
I received your email with the 1841 census Smith's who were tin men. I shall have a proper look later on and see if I need any further details.
