well I have now heard from Derek's late wife's [Pamela] nephew Paul Scholey and whilst he's been unable to find Derek he has given me a contact address for Pamela's brother, so I shall write to him and see where that gets me!!
He lives in some place called Beal, in Goole, name W P Scholey

Rose - you are a treasure - I have just had a reply from Paul Scholey and he is connected to Derek Wright so he is going to see if he can contact Derek for me

why I didn't think of looking in Search Trees myself I have no idea - I'm always advising others to do it yet I never thought of it myself :-S

Worked out that Pamela's maiden name was Scholey and she was born 1936. She is in a tree on this site.

Hi there - I'm pretty sure it's not the right one as that Derek is far too old and he definitely said he was moving within Yorkshire because of his connection to the sailing fraternity there

I am so grateful to you and everyone else though for the trouble you are taking in trying to help me

Ann,

Have you tried the BT phone book...

http://www.thephonebook.bt.com/publisha.content/en/search/residential/search.publisha

Put his surname in and North Yorkshire.then you could try East Yorkshire.

I have tried differnt tracing sites but it costs an arm and a leg.

Good Luck.

Sue
