(above has Laity)

I see that this has advanced well. I saw the possible Laity connection last night but just too tired to follow up.

I see someone else also thought that Amy could very well be Mary, wouldn't be the first time that happens.

Well done everyone.

Would help if Shirley could get back to us with details of that birth certificate.

Birth date on Mary's death certificate was 19 June 1859- let's hope we have a match.
