Sorry wrong name, it is William. He married a Mary Jane Reddaway 1863 in 1885. He was a railway worker and I think was killed on the railway.I am trying to find out if there is relatives left. My mother knew them as her grand-parents as they took in her mother at a very young age. They lived in Exminster, Devon around the 1900's. I know they had 5 sons.If anyone could help I would be most grateful. Yours. Linda.

Many thanks to "Lost World"? in helping me find out about the Brailey family. Yes the marrage was right William-- to --Mary Reddaway, and they all lived in Exminster. I am so longing for the New Census to come out so I can find out about my Grandmother. She was born in the workhouse at Honiton ,I have her certificate of birth,marriage and death, but what happened to her in between I dont know. Once again Many Thanks... Linda.
