Hi Daph. , Jennifer here. Cant help with your Smith but do have a Church connection on my husbands side .His sister Andrea married Dudley James Tracy Church about 1952 in Seymour Vict. We are in contact with their son on a regular basis. Any connection there? We will be off air for 2 weeks. Please let us know. Good luck.

Thanks Jennifer, I have only been able to track 1 person in Melbourne of this family in Vic I would welcome any info. Daph
I checked NSW BDMs for you. There are no births to Jesse and Margaret up to 1909. There is one death for Jesse Smith in Kiama in 1861 (parents Alfred and Esther).
There is no marriage for Jesse John Smith and Margaret Carberry, however, there is a marriage in 1857 for Edgar John Smith and Margaret Carberry in Kiama.
There is no Jesse John Smith or Edgar John Smith on the Australian Cemeteries Index, although there is an unmarked grave for Jesse Smith, but in Brisbane.
I tried the NLA Newspaper archives without any good matches.He was not on the list of teachers in NSW schools published in 1880 in the Sydney Morning Herald.
I also tried Ancestry for you without luck.
Sorry.
Rosie
