Tamara Geddes, also called 'Tam', of a Reserve district address in the parish, was reportedly shot in her bedroom around 8:45 p.m.
According to a neighbour, Geddes was killed in front of her 10-year-old daughter.
The neighbour added that the family has once again been plunged into mourning as Tamara's brother, Gregory, was stabbed to death in January.
Tamara's death brings to two such killings in recent weeks.
Three weeks ago, Robert Dawkins was shot and killed in Sherwood Content, less than a mile away from Geddes' home.
