Hi Chris, I emailed an archivist friend with your request and here is the reply: The acid content of the paper (or rather the lack of it) is the important thing. If he is using a commercial printer they ought to know all about such matters if they are any good. I would expect their charges to be higher if proper archival quality paper is specified. There are many suppliers of archival quality paper and materials and a quick search on google shows a lot too.

I am 60 years old tomorrow. remember Beta and VCR's.now DVD.They made VCR movies that couldn't be copied.but DVD are not.They made 8 track,then Cassette and now CD Well most machines today can do both.play CD or DVD.Film from cameras can be put onto a computer chip now.I have filmed some stuff. My Point I have so much stuff on Paper I have a storage problem.and the ink will fade away to nothing.So DVD is the best and cheapest now. I'll worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.Today I need room.Besides it is easier access and too send.now I must type everything extremely time comsuming.I'll be able to send stuff that much easier.and possibly create several files.like one for each surname.or ever area. Paper is so imperfect.Google.com is slowely scanning every thing in sight.so googling today is the thing. keep on-keeping on-never quit. Roger

Dear Eng- East- Yorks - L Listers I am researching my family history.

The factory was Thomas Burton ( chip basket makers ) in London Rd King's Lynn Norfolk from abt 1910 to 1917 and then from abt 1917 to 1930 at Sutton Bridge Lincolnshire. Please is it possible that any one is researching Burton from Hull. Regards Harold David Scott
