Title: Lily Reay- completed
Post by: Sharon01 on Wednesday 15 August 12 09:32 BST (UK)

Hi,

I am trying to find what happened to Lily Reay born 1866 Hexham to parents Shadrach Reay & Stewart Salkeld.

In 1871 she is with her parents in Hexham RG10/Piece 5146/Folio 14/Page 22

1881 has the family living in Eskdalemuir, Dumfriesshire, Scotland

Then I loose her. I can not find a marriage or death that seems to fit in England or Scotland.

Any help in finding Lily would be great.

Sharon

I think this could be her in 1891 (in 1881 Lily has an 8 year old brother called Jacob)

Queensberry Square Dumfries.

Hi Sharon,

Lovely to meet you!

It wasn't until after I posted that I realised just how old the thresd was so I'm delighted to hear from you.

I'm very new to this so not really sure how it all works, I have loads of scribbled notes which I will definitely need to organise but your previous posts (and the replies) have been a massive help and much appreciated.
