Eric, thanks for pointing that site out. I have now made contact with a distant relative in America. (Our Gt Grandmothers were sisters). We have now sent quite a few e-mails to each other - his Aunt has been doing the Family Tree since 1980 so managed to fill me on a few things I didnt know and had even gone back further generations than I had managed. So a fiver well spent I would say. Once again, many thanks.
