Many thanks to Beverley, Sandra, Roland, Ray, Michelle & Joan, who have all offered suggestions. However, I am still no further down the track. I have had over 18 different PR's through the LDS thus far & am still searching (not only for CALLARD/DISTIN). I suppose I was hoping to find someone who said "I have a ........ CALLARD marrying a ........ DISTIN" - one can always live in hope!! A further tip for the IGI - if anyone is interested. I searching for a surname, (first name unknown), as well as filling in any, or all of "region, country, state" boxes, one can further refine the search by putting in an event, in my instance, marriage (it will not allow anything more). This reduced the available options of CALLARD & region etc, from 1000's to 419 entries. I have just trawled through those looking at suitable males, but to no avail. Happy hunting John Wareham Central Coast NSW in Oz DEV names: CALLARD, COAD/CODD, COCKRAM, PENWILL, RADFORD & SCOBLE
