Hi Annette7

Thank you for that information on Elizabeth Smith. Charles and William are both on the GRO Birth index and their mother's maiden name was Shepherd/Sheppard. I found Elizabeth Smith and her son Thomas (b, 1842) with her husband George William Smith in Woolwich in 1851. He was a Rigger in 1851 and a mariner when they married. The marriage record states Elizabeth was the daughter of a William Payne, Labr. For some reason, although their son was registered in 1842 with MMS Payne, they did not actually marry until 1844. He was a widower and she was a spinster.

Now I have three siblings I can search for the parents.
Thanks again to those who contributed to this thread.

Sincerely,
