I've just looked up the DN of Fanny Augusta Bird who was married to William Hancorn Smith. It has information that doesn't match up to other information that has been circulated about the family so I thought it would be of interest to the Smith watchers.

Birthplace: Island of Ascension; parents, Thomas Birde, Elizabeth Bird; Age 41 years 10 months; condition in life : nurse; married to Charles William Mutten.
