Christening: 19 MAY 1793 Raydon, Suffolk, England

you said of Ambrose Smith who went to Australia that he was born 1760 and

'what I know of him is that he had a son Named Ambrose who was married to a Morella,and another son Ferdanad who died 1826 and a daughter Susannah.'


please ....... can you tell us where_the_information_came_from

that Ambrose Smith father of Ambrose and Ferdinand was born 1760, went to Australia, died 1790

???

(I have edited because I kept typing 1800s instead of 1700s)

eight Ambrose Smith's in Oz and NZ but a bit difficult to tie them in unless we have an idea of where in Australia he went - any idea if he married over there or did he marry over here?
