Thanks for looking, Tracy. I begin to think that they were hiding in a cellar!

Yes, please, Tracy, but don't spend a lot of time on them as they must be mistranscribed: Thomas and George Lanning in London. Thomas should be a cabinet maker or timber merchant. George should be a whitesmith, coachsmith or lodging house keeper. Both should be 35 or 40. Thomas should have a wife Mary, George may just have a clutch of children or may be with Rebecca Horseman. There is an honourable history of mistranscription: Lunning, Laming, Launung, so please don't spend a lot of time on this.

I can have a quick look, if you want. Save you using it if it's worthless :)

Thanks for that, guys. Now it's just a question of whether I activate my free 72 hours now, or wait for another month in the hope of more counties appearing.

I don't know what ''complete'' would be, but it does have St Pancras and Marylebone. Not sure about Holborn though. Ahh, will St Andrew Holborn do?

I saw a message about it on the boards last week, will try and look for it and nudge. It's not advertised, but a few people said that it was in the drop down lit bit. x

Is it complete? Eg, does it include Pancras, Marylebone & Holborn?
