You said that you are looking for anyone researching Alonzo Smith.

Look in Search/Search All Member Trees (top right) for others who have him in their trees on here, and made contact with them that way. In addition, make sure he is in your tree, so that others can contact you through here,

Added: You have Alonza - so this will not be picked up in tree searches by others if he is actually Alonzo, or vice versa.

Peter does have below, so quite a few names to look for in 'Search All Member Trees'...
