	1860 wedding cert says father's occ was a 'Right Smith' at least that's what it looks like. Any ideas what this is? Yvonne

	Hi Merry It certainly looks like 'Right' but??? I don't think it is White. Could be 'Bright' I suppose. I have image scanned and could send it to you Very bad writing - lol

	Thanks again Merry Bright Smith is probably right as there was a lot of tin workers in Swansea at that time.
