Melanie..... Go to the familysearch website and put in Hezekiahs details when it comes up, go down to the batch number on the bottom left hand corner of the page and click on it......this will bring you back to the search page, but the batch number will be in the box......put in Smith in the surname box and Thomas and Sarah in the father and mother boxes and click on search.....this will bring you up all the names I have listed, you can do this for any entry you find on the IGiI wether it be marraige or baptism, it will bring you up all the people recorded and transcribed of that church in the years described, with the same surname and with the specific parents names if you have chosen to put them in. Hope all that makes sense... that way of searching is brilliant for finding brothers and sisters.

Good luck

Nicky

PS... When starting a new search for a different name, remember to delete batch number from box, otherwise you keep coming up with no results.... been caught out myself before.
