I have been doing re seach
on Arthur's smart and Mary Lola McKay there some old threads
We unable to find Arthur birth certificate due to I don’t have his parent name
We got Arthur smart Death certificate unfortunately unknown parent

Arthur and Mary had
1900 Elizabeth smart
1904 Arthur R smart
1905 Walter smart
1908 Reginald smart

On birth certificate of kids it show Arthur smart was born in Yass nsw
Mary Lola McKay was born Forbes

Been told Mary McKay  Marry John Cameron had two kids I’m unsure as I feel this information maybe wrong as  Mary would been young plus on birth certificate of  Elizabeth Her two other kids should have been on it I maybe wrong

I did my DNA in MyHeritage
76.2%
English
19.7%
Irish, Scottish, and Welsh
2.1%
Papuan
2.0%
East European


 So I’m hoping to see what everyone thought on this

Added- DNA ethnicity estimate as merely that- estimates- and can vary quite a bit from one company to another depending on their database holdings, etc. About as useful as wing mirrors on a submarine really.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

The previous issue on a child's birth certificate should only be the issue of that father and mother, not children from any previous relationships.

Arthur and Mary Lola did not marry so it is definitely possible that she was already married.  You would need to see the CAMERON marriage certificate for more information about the bride.
