Gender Male
Christening[1] 9 Dec 1798 Luton, Bedfordshire, Englandof Leagrave

James Smith was baptised on 9th December 1798 at Luton in Bedfordshire, son of Elisamirah Smith, formerly Davis, and her husband John Smith. The family lived at Leagrave, then a rural hamlet to the north of the town itself. When James was two years old his mother died.

James appears to have witnessed his brother William's marriage in 1814. He has yet to be traced after 1814, as there appear to have been several James Smiths in the Luton area of a similar age.
