hi there

my great grandfather harry christie smith was born on a ship halfway betwwen scotland and california. his father was a ships captain i think his name was john or james. i know harry studied art and had a few exebitions in the uk? desperately trying to locate his birth certificate so that my family and i can return to scotland. The names jane and maryannne also are very prominent in our family.  harry lost his first wife during childbirth in scotland. the childs name was janie. he then came to south africa and married my great grandmother clarice south. as i said if he does sound like a possible relation please do help!

sincerely

Kristy Smith

Some idea of dates even aproximate would be of help. With possible dates and location for the death of the first wife in Scotland it would be possible to narrow the field down a bit and access marriage records, birth records and death records. there are also maritime records of the captains of ships but without some clue as to when all this occurred such a search is impossible

regards

George
