	Hi..wondering if an y one can tell me where in scotland the above man was born. He was living in Burnley lancashire in 1841 but down as Andrew smets? Age 40 with wife Elizabeth also aged 40. Think he was living on Albion street Burnley on the 1861 census...neighbour to daughter Margaret who had married John Walsh. Could anyone see him on the 1851 in Burnley...Think would be down as Smith. Thanks Shirley :-)
