I received a pm from John on the 10th but neglected to open it until now.
I would not want anyone to believe he does not thank helpers.
My apologies.

The message included the information:
'Thanks for the idea that the entry may have been mis recorded. Unfortunately I do not have any birth or death or marriage details for these people.'

John,
Perhaps you should change the heading to include 'Australia' for more specialised help?
