	A potentially useful resource. Don't expect mine to be there - and can't find any of the names for my friend's tree which I've done a bit of work on, but it's still a useful tip, thanks People will need to be aware that it doesn't look as if there will be anything more than what's there now. The flashing info on the first page says it was last updated 16 August 1999. Christine

Give it a go! Jan
