Alfred William Smith (A.W. Smith), also known as "The Cabbage King," was one of the most successful market gardeners working in South West Middlesex, England in the 19th and 20th centuries. Smith was born in Putney in 1855 but lived most of his life in Feltham until his death in 1927. Smith was remembered by one of his foremen, Alfred Lucas: Lucas, as the man who spent much time working with Smith, is the main source of information relating to Smith.
