Hi Stan Many thanks for that information on the HUTTON's, much appreciated. That is far more than my friend ever knew about the family. Was there ever a coal mine named HUTTON or is that a heresay story she thought she heard as a child. There maybe were children call Maureen and Hugh attached to the family. As I said the information she had was very skettchy, but with the info you have given we maybe able to trace a few more bit 'n pieces. Once again many thanks Pam New Zealand -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.488 / Virus Database: 269.14.1/1050 - Release Date: 04/10/2007 5:03 p.m.
