Text source

Albert Smart was listed as a Scottish burgess in Posen in 1642, from Dundee. William Brown [SSNE 1083] served as his guarantor. This is probably the same as Woyciech (a Polish alias taken by some Scots) Schmart noted amongst the contributors for the subsidy for King Charles II in 1651 when he paid 300 florins
