My father, George Ernest White , has a sister Alice. We know she married a Frederick Smith in 1906, and there it ends, I have hit a brick wall. I would dearly love to know if I have any cousins.
If you know of an Alice and Fred smith, nee White I would love to here from you
Area Lincolnshire is where they are from.
Thank you
Mary
