Whilst it seems likely that the following family was connected to the above family, not least because the following John is identified by Ormerod as "descended of a younger brother of Smith of Cuerdly" and by Visitation (1580) as "descended of a younger brother of Sir Thomas Smith of Cuerdley", their coats of arms were very different, the above family's being based on bars wavy whilst the following family's was based on 3 fleurs-de-lis.
