Frederick William Boyton Smith (1837 - 1919) Royaume-Uni
Frederick W Boyton Smith was born in Dorchester in
September or October 1837, and is recorded as
having been baptised on October 13th in
Dorchester?s St Peters Church. Frederick was
clearly born into a musical family, for his
father, also named Frederick William Smith, was a
musician; his mother, Helen Boyton and her sister
Clara (who was a teacher of music) were the
daughters of Richard Boyton, a professor and
teacher of piano. Helen was originally from
Clifton, Bristol, where she married Boyton?s
father in September 1835. To avoid confusion with
his father, Frederick jr. is usually known as
Boyton Smith. The 1861 census shows that Boyton
Smith?s father was originally a Kentish man from
Deal, had moved with Helen to Dorchester. He is
recorded as being ?a professor of music and
dance.? (Hide extended text)...(Read all) Source : Wikipedia
