Thankyou very much Matt. My relative is Ellen READ (1861) a daughter of George READ (1828) and Jane TINGLE (1828). Ann READ (1856)was her older sister and I would welcome any further information about her. I knew her other sister Jane Ann READ (Sept 1854) who moved to Brighton and married George W.BATCHELOR, a manager at the Royal Pavilion. I often confuse the two Ann READs; I hope I have got it right. And was there a local paper for the Forest in 1879?
