Thank you PricklyHolly, I think I must have been in TV watching mode whilst you were so busy. I am going to have to wake up the little grey cells with some more coffee before tackling this lot !

Oh my head, youv'e really done it in this time PricklyHolly. There was me, having copied and pasted all of last nights info and then, whilst I am busy writing to say thank you, you are sending a load more !!!

Even more coffee required........

Hi PricklyHolly. I thought I had just written to you but perhaps because you can't see me I'm not really here?
More likely I did something other than click 'Submit' and now I can't remember.....
Well you have left me in a right state and I think the only thing left is to ascertain from the real descendant which family he really knows about and who was alive when he was a child, from 1939.
Originally, this a.m. I was going into G.R. to find out about Sarah Jane Griffiths, because there seems to be a choice, then I saw what you had been upto and Sarah Jane went out of my head.....

I would be interested to know who the person is that he is referring to.

Hi PricklyHolly, if I understanf you correctly I can tell you the living person is Stanley E Lawton 1939 with parents
