Yes I think you may be right AG. Once again many thanks for your help. By the way I have found Brian Moore b1934 Sheffield. He was killed in a traffic accident 1994 Scotland. Found his family on Facebook, sent messages but they don't seem to want to reply and unsure of any other way of contacting them. Oh well that's how things go
