Jessie Smiths maiden name on the marriage certificate,is Foster,When she married Henry ( Harry ),But we know that she was fostered out by MINNIE DEANE,of the baby farm at Wilton,Southland,new Zealand.We know that she was one of the two young girls that witnessed,against MINNIE DEANE's.So we are of the understanding that she didn't know her real maiden name,as she was given by her mother more or less straight after the birth,We alos know that her mother was a redhead,if that is anything to go by.
