great grandfather was JAMES JOHN SMITH, born about 1810 in England, but we have no clue as to where in England. He emigrated to New Brunswick Canada in 1843. At that time he was unmarried, and his occupation was a shoemaker. I assume he learned his trade in England, as he was recorded in the 1851 census for New Brunswick as a farmer and a shoemaker. 5 DNA matches suggest he may have been from Birmingham area. hoping to find a birth record or 1841 census.
