Hi CaroleW,
Sorry If I gave the wrong impression, but this lady was the same age as my Mother, I am over 70 so she would probably be over 100 now and I don`t expect her to be alive.

Iam also looking for her father Alex I also don`t know where or when he died, he may have been a butcher,

She also had a brother Alex and if details of him came to light I would be interested,

Thank you for your help,,
Fortune

If MacGillivray was her married name - there is no death entry for her on the index after 1963

There are 14 Alexander McGillivray deaths on the index - none in Glamorgan

We need to know when these people were born and where they were born. 

There are many entries with the same names so we need more info to determine the right ones

Was she a spinster?  If not - there is no use looking for a death for an Alexander MacGillivray as that would not be her fathers surname
