Thanks gents for clearing that up, sorry Sheila for suggesting otherwise and leading you down the wrong pit ! Must admit re-reading the earlier history of his ancestors & inlaws I guessed this would turn out to be the case.
Slowhands, please are you able to clarify the "Freeminer database" you mention ?. Presumably it gives greater info than the FoD PRs etc ?. I cannot see it as a FoD LHS or GFHS publication/cd, but it sounds like something I'd like access to ?.
