Can't help with his service records but when he married Elizabeth Wolfenden in 1874 he was a labourer so joined the constabulary somewhere between 1874-1881

18.1.1874 St Matthew Chadderton

Peter & Elizabeth were both 21
His father was Ralph Whitehead - innkeeper & hers was James Wolfenden engineer

Travelling People / Re: SMITH'S HULL AREA

Smith & Jones are probably the most common surnames.  It was also a common surname amongst the travelling community. 

You haven't given any details of where and when Mendoza was born/married or why you feel any of these Smiths could be connected to him

Is this person still alive?  If not - when & where did she die?

Did she marry?  If so - to whom & when & where?

Have you checked the 1911 & 1901 censuses as some of the male names are quite distinctive- Render, Haridine, Theodociiaus.   You could also check freebmd for births.

The 1911 has a Render Smith b 1883 & another b 1842

You say you came across the marriages - are they connected to your ancestry?
