Hi David,

Have you found Margaret on a census which will give her place of birth?

A census after Margaret's marriage would be helpful

Michael Lay, 32, (b. 1849), Cinder Filler, Cork

Mary Ann, dau, b. 1870, Blaina, Monm
Rachel, dau, b. 1874, Tredegar, Monm
William, son, b. 1876, Tredegar, Monm

The Margaret here (surname also Lee, Leahy and LAY) was maiden name Gibbon

 The Lee, Leahy, Lay family have been researched and are here:

There is a summary on the final page

Hello,

1871 would be best as I think/thought Mary Rees nee Gibbon is Margaret’s sister. It is explained somewhere I think.
1871 5321/14/21
Bedwelty

Rees Rees   27 yrs
Mary Rees   26 yrs b Llanelly, Brecknockshire
Mary Rees   5 yrs
William R Rees   2 yrs
Margaret Leahy   20 yrs b Llanelly, Brecknockshire
Mary Ann Leahy   6 Months

I think KGarrad has the family
