[Registration no : 3301 / 1859.]
"Date of Marriage : December 1859; Place of Marriage : Yass"
[Transcript from daughter's Birth Certificate 18339 / 1868]
[Registration no. 3301 / 1859. Marriage of James Smith and Sarah Buckley. Registered in the BDM District of Yass]
"Birthplace : Ireland; Age : 30"
[Transcript from daughter's Birth Certificate 18339 / 1868. As this information was from his daughter's birth certificate, it is regarded as more reliable than another source which gives Glamorgan, Wales as his birthplace. Age 30 gives calculated birthdate as 1838]
"Born : Swansea, Glamorganshire, Wales; Date 1836 (app)". This is wrong. He was born in Ireland
[Margarette advises that Pop (John) Owen told her the information about how James died]
[Sylvia Newton (nee Owen) suggests an alternative name to Buckley is Buckland]
[Sarah's death certificate gives her age as 46 (indicating a birth year of 1839/1840) and states she was born in Sydney. The information was supplied by her son Frederick Smith]
[This information was supplied by Sarah herself, so a birthplace of Sydney looks the most likely.]
[This record gives Sarah's birthplace as Goulburn, NSW. Who supplied this information? All other records indicate Sydney as her birthplace. Her birth certificate has not been found in the NSW online Birth index.]
[This site gives her birthday as abt. 1838]

[Registration no. 14572 / 1861 for Patrick Smith
The eldest son was named as Michael Smith on the death certificate of their mother Sarah Owen (previously Smith nee Buckley). However a search of BDMs Index for children born to James Smith and Sarah found the first born as Patrick not Michael on certificate 14572 / 1861. This year, 1861 matches an estimated year of birth based on the information on that death certificate. Consequently, his name is being accepted as Patrick Michael Smith. A copy of his birth certificate is required to confirm this conclusion.]
