Sue,
Will you be sending for the birth cert for Evelyn Rea.

It would be very interesting reading seeing as I can't find a marriage for Frederick Alexander/alexander Frederick Rea and Emily....

Hi Rose I did see that and have thought about it but I am grateful for the reminder because I looked at hundreds of records yesterday and my brain is so scrambled.

I have a sneaking suspicion that perhaps the parents didn't marry and maybe Evelyn Rea is the biological child of another Rea.

I will have to order the cert once I have paid the electricity bill *groan*.

You have all been wonderful and so generous with your time, thank you so much.

If I get further info I'll put it up. I don't want this one to beat me...lol
