Sickness in the 1850s -- Garndiffaith (General)

As far as I've been able to determine the father of James M. SMITH is Seth SMITH. I have this information from his 1872 Marriage Certificate, also stating that Seth is deceased, and his Death Certificate of which the informant was his wife, Mary Ann MORGAN. I have no knowledge of his mother's name or any other siblings. I have recently ordered a Birth Record from the GRO in the hope that it is the correct person, this is the closest match I've found, and I should have it next week.

Five of his Nine children were baptised at the Forest of Dean Bible Christian Chapel and one at Cinderford St. Johns. Not sure about the others. Once in settled in America he became a member of the Primitive Methodist Church in Nanticoke, Pennsylvania.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated.
Thanks
