Hi All, I have just stumbled on an interesting community archive site and found a photo of "the big house" my grandmother worked in before her marriage in 1916. As it burnt down in 1922 I was well pleased. There are all sorts of things on there, sure to be useful to some of you. http://www*commandet*org (replace * with .) Happy hunting, Moira.

am I being a bit dense here?

I typed Rhead into the search engine and so far none of the pictures tell me where the rhead bit is linked to it

Could someone help me work out how I need to be searching?

I;m just typing Rhead in and it comes back with 41 results but none of them have Rhead linked into them from what I can see :S

*Confused*
