You give no indications of their ages.

You may find them on the 1939 index or the 1921 census on Find My Past. You could also use www.freebmd.org.uk to work out possibles dates for their births, marriages and deaths. You can also use it to work out if there are any children.
Added:
By using FreeBMD I can see that sSamuel Charles Smart was born in 1907. Which means you should find him on the 1911 census.
