It is true that every family tree will undoubtedly link into the name 'Smith' at some point. This is the first instance I encounter the name 'Smith but also find it in 2 other places in my family tree.
The name 'Smith' makes tracing lineage incredibly difficult as it is such a common name and very difficult to track with accuracy.
