Well, better put than me Kate! Val, you dont owe 50p, the original £5 sub covers ongoing support. Bargain or what, eh?

Valerie I think Heather is trying to say something that sounds like hot male (GR will not allow the word to be posted as it should be spelt). Kate.

No, afraid not - she sounds like she was the child of a GI war marriage so she has no info whatsoever - but still, its nice to know the old surname is out there in the USA. Ive asked her to email me again with the definite facts she does have. I have any idea which line she is from and its such a rare name that everyone with it is related to me in some way. If you do your home website through FTM use your 'not-cold' email addy as a contact address as that does filter spam.

Thats nice, isnt it - google search picked up one of my most important and rare names and this lady in US (who has it added as her middle name - same as me) has contacted me from the site. Not a close link but a link nevertheless.
