Many thanks once again Carmel you're right they are mine and while entering them into my PAF 5 I have discovered that I have accidentally changed /incorrectly entered George as a female. Now I need to figure out how to change his sex since you found him a wife. Thank you heaps Col

Carmel, another odd thing.... on his Birth Cert. he is called Richard yet on his Death Cert and now the info you've sent me he has changed to Robert. Col
