Hi Mike, There is a death for Ann Sye aged 73 on FreeBMD Mar qtr 1876 Marylebone vol 1a p433. I cannot find an Ann Sye on the 1871 census but I can find one on the 1861 census, although she is recorded as born 1796. I cannot find a marriage for Ann Say (or variants) on FreeBMD. Not sure how much this helps! cheers, Anne > Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2008 11:20:19 +0000> To: SUSSEX-PLUS-L@rootsweb.com> From: rmasay@globalnet.co.uk> Subject: [SXP] ANN SAY nee BATCHELOR HENFIELD> > This is a desperation shot.> I have been trying for an awfully long time to track down the death > record of my paternal gggrandmother ANN SAY nee BATCHELOR who was > born 1804 Henfield (though never been able to track a baptismal > record for her) and who married my gggfather HENRY WILLIAM SAY and > subsequently spent her life until 1871 (when she is shown as a widow > under a mistranscribed name of LAY) in the Deptford Lambeth areas of > Surrey/Kent/London.
