Yes, this is my problem. I have seen the entries for our family tree. All of my 45 cousins, their parents, my grandparents and even a New Forest magazine entry has said that Florence Kersey Smith was 2nd cousin to Florence Nightingale. This is my quest. To see some kind of documentation with that link.
One thing I have learnt is to work backwards. Having been satisfied about GG Grandmother being descended from Edward Moss Dimmock, I turn my head to James Smith. Who is this man, apparently related to F Nightingale. If you could find a marriage certicate that might help and would certainly fill in a gap.
It states on the famiy tree that his father was William Adams Smith. How do they know this? Thats ultimately my aim. Really appreciate any help you can give me.
