Harry,
Thanks so much for your explanation, I am now up to speed on the Leece, Davidson, Servant, state of affairs. I am amazed at how you Gen, people are able to extract so much info from so little in a record, and for me its all code anyway. Please tell me where you have sourced this info about passage and payment? Are there records available for searching that I am unaware of. Please may I ask for one more explanation. What does "finally disposed of - J. Dumbell, New Hampshire" mean, I am thinking it might mean that J. paid the bill. How am I going? All this must have been long and laborious given that internet banking is still a little way off.
