Hi, I have just seen your request by chance when researching my family tree. Charles Henry Gay and Mary Jane Oates were my Great Grandparents. Their daughter Violet Jane Gay was my father's mother. Violet died in 1991 aged 86. She married my grandfather Leslie James Roberts and had four sons Leslie (deceased), Joseph, Basil (now lives in Canada) and my father William Maurice who passed away in 2001. I live in Camborne, Cornwall but grew up in Chacewater. Violet Jane's husband was killed in about 1942 and she brought up her four sons at Wheal Rose near Redruth having never married again. I would be really interested to hear from you if you receive this message. Kind Regard, Gail Williams.
