Background

History

He was a great-great-grandson of the prominent merchant John Smith, a director of both the South Sea Company and the East India Company. John Smith was the second son of Abel Smith (1717–1788), the Nottingham banker who founded a banking dynasty and whose business much later became National Westminster Bank, now one of the largest banks in the United Kingdom. Mansfield Smith's father was Colonel John Thomas Smith of the Madras Royal Engineers who became Master of the Madras and Calcutta Mints and designed a machine for minting coins that was displayed at the Great Exhibition in 1851.
