Hi Nanna

Many thanks for taking the time to look up. I ave seen this entry and think it maybe another family, as in the 1851 Census hs is in Weston Super Mare Occupation Waiter at the Plough Hotel also listed are

Wife ~ Elizabeth Born abt 1823 Banwell Somerset

Daughter ~ Elizabeth Born abt 1848 Weston Super Mare

Daughter ~ Mary Born abt 1850 Weston Super Mare.



In 1861

I can only find his Wife Elizabeth now remarried

Hopkins Street Weston Super Mare

Head~ John Granger Born abt 1819 Oxford

Wife ~ Elizabeth Born abt 1823 Banwell Somerset

Step Daughter ~ Mary Smith Born abt 1850 Weston Super Mare

Step Son ~ George Smith Born abt 1852 Weston Super Mare [my 2nd Gt Grandfather]

Son ~ Charles J Granger Born 1859 Weston Super Mare



Elizabeth & John Granger married abt 1859 Axebridge Somerset.

so it may be that James Smith her first Husband had died.
