Hi, Kevynne.
When you say "family", do you mean David and Gray's ancestors, or their children?
As you've given an exact year for Gray's birth, I assume you have her birth record with her parents' names?

Thank you so much for your help. I am interested in finding out about the children of
David and Gray Reid and possibly the next generation. I really appreciate everything that you have sent. I am quite surprised to find that so many of my ancestors came to Australia .Plenty to keep me busy for a while
Thanks
