Pat, My father's aunt, Susan Winter, b. February 28, 1879, married William Reid, an electrician, in Dundee. They subsequently emigrated to Perth, Australia, and had 3 children in the early 1900s: George Reid, Isabella Beattie Reid and Mary Frances Reid. Mary Frances married an Arthur Flynn. Do you have any records regarding either the ancestors or descendants of these Reids? Charles G.
