Many thanks all. I had to go out yesterday afternoon and didn't realize how much had gone on in my absence. I have the feeling I have seen the name Betty Cantrell before but I can't find it. Perhaps she will pop up again one day when I am looking in another of the family files?

I find it annoying to not have the page numbers at the bottom of the thread like we used to. Now you only get them after the first page which means you have to keep going back to look and see if there are any replies! :-|
