Hi Benjamin, Have nudged up thread WHO FOR AND WHERE ARE WE LOOKING, on TIPS BOARD. It was started on 7/02/04,by Janet Nickless, it is a good idea,and then another idea was to put on different areas. Thought I would nudge this up for newcomers. regards trish.

Researching:
Webber,Strong. ( Watchet,Minehead,Somerset)Drake,(Plymouth Devon)
