Hi Annette, I'm not sure if I have the right person. I have recently taken over as admin of the Guild of One-Name Studies group on GenealogyWise. I noticed that someone by the name of Annette had previously requested to join the group. The group is restricted to members only.

Hi Annette,
The Reedy name is my married name. I don't know too much about it. My husband's family came from Missouri, but before that, I don't know. My step-son has been doing some searching and I think the family came from Ireland, but not sure. I have also heard that it could have been McReedy. Sorry I don't have any more info than that.
No, my READY family were in London in 1800, moved to Grimsby, discovered gold in Australia, then came back & made money through fishing boats in Grimsby. sorry not to be able to help!
Hello Annette -
Thanks for your message when subscribing to England. FreeBMD and the censuses are the main resources you'll need to use - I don't see anyone with a relevant conection at genesreunited. I see you've mentioned your hunt on various of the genealogy boards already. I've checked the Guild of One-Name Studies for you & there isn't a MUMFORD study. Certainly you've well publicised your hunt around the net - I hope it bears fruit at some stage!
