Obviously start with GENUKI. The Clwyd FHS has some publications like MIs on sale from their website. There is quite an active mailing list on ROOTSWEB where I have been able to get help in the past - I think there is a FLINT list but the CLWYD one is most active. You can also check the archives of the list there. If all else fails try some websearches, it is surprising what can be found on the WWW. Put in place names, names of people etc, something like "history" or "family history". If you use GOOGLE.CO.UK then you can limit to mainly UK sites though GOOGLE has a tendency to match to too many commercial sites so I often find a search engine like VIVISIMO more useful. Martin
