Glover Charles-Rey on his 100th birthday

Glover Charles Rey is believed to be the oldest surviving Anguillian in the Dominican Republic. He is in good health and is fluent in both English and Spanish. He would like to return to Anguilla one day. “Just put me in the Forest and I will find my way East End,” he says.

The Anguillian centenarian is the son of the late Charles Wagner Rey and Elizabeth Bryan of East End. He is related to the Reys, Duncans, Sassos, Smiths, Websters, Rogers and Gumbs families in Anguilla.
