Parents

Gone down the rabbit hole a bit trying to find her parents, without much luck. There's no graduate of Oxford named Pray or Prey in the 18th or 19th century. https://archive.org/details/alumnioxoniense01oxfogoog/page/n388/mode/2up Gamaliel (talk) 15:39, 14 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Gamaliel, thanks for looking. I wonder if he went by another name during school days? It's also possible that the information is wrong. Thoughts? --Rosiestep (talk) 17:14, 14 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Gamaliel: @Rosiestep: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Pray-526 looks to be a sensible source on the father. I don't know who H. A. V. is, who signed the obituary in the Magazine of Poetry; but they wrote other obituaries there, and so they may not have had any direct knowledge. That looks like an unreliable source.
