Hello



As you will appreciate SMITH, is not an easy name to pick up on!



I can find at least 2 James Frederick b 1905 in London both in the q4 Oct / Dec do you have any other family info, like siblings, the

full forenames will do?



You then say Jas F married Gladys Mary SMITH is this her correct maiden name? Again I cannot pick up a SMITH =SMITH in the London area in 1930, so a bit more about her siblings may be useful.....





Elsabels



Same as Noggin 28

Great minds think alike........!

Noting your other post re: your Grandfather’s death in Greenwich registration district 1981.



This is a possible death record for him



Name: James Frederick Smith

Birth Date: 18 Dec 1905

Death Registration

Month/Year: 1981

Registration district: Greenwich

Inferred County: Greater London

Volume: 12 Page: 0890



There is a Baptism record for 19th September 1906 at St. Luke Deptford which lists the birth of James Frederick Smith as 18 December 1905 – his parents are James Frederick Smith and Gertrude Annie living 25 Junction Road – Occupation of father “Hammersmith”.



If all of the above is relevant to your James, then your grandfather’s parents were James Frederick Smith and Gertrude Annie Mills who married as follows

Going back to the 1930 marriage, if Smith is not your grandmother’s maiden name then a possible record is
