Hi, we may be related. My father (Fred Doherty) married Annie Agnes Read, daughter of Edmund William Read, who was the son of Mark Read, who was the son of George Read. Have you done any research that you would care to share.
Cheers, Peter Doherty [peter@dohertys.com.au]

Hi
My 'READ' ancestor is John Frederick (Fred) another of Mark Read's sons (11/03/1851-20/12/1929). Fred married Sarah Ellen WOOD and their son, Byers Wood READ was my maternal grandfather. I have been researching the Read family for some 15 years and am willing to share info and photographs.
