Dear listers, As yet I haven't had a response to my message so I'm thinking there might not be anyone else researching our 3 x ggrandmother's KEAY family. In order to find further information, could sks please direct me as to what parish records or monumental inscriptions might be available for Whixall, Prees and Westbury so that I might be able to purchase them myself and not rely on others. On some census entries, the birthplace is shown as Prees and on others it is Whixall so I'm getting confused as to what to enter into my tree. On the 1851 census Whixall is crossed out and Prees entered instead. Am I right in thinking Whixall was the township and Prees the parish? I look forward to receiving advice on where I should look next. Thank you so much.
