Travelling People / Smiths gypsies
« on: Monday 27 July 20 13:52 BST (UK) »
Hello there
This is my first post as a new member so please bear with me. I have recently found that I have descended from the Smiths gypsies and a great grandfather was Absolom Smith, known as King of the Gypsies. No stories have been passed down, which is a shame. One of the things that interests me is how and when they stopped travelling and became house dwellers. Any advice or information on the Smiths would be welcome. Thanks for reading.
