Gordon, you're a star! Thanks very much for checking out my LILLY/EARL connection. I am assuming that James and John are one and the same: what, after all, are the chances of a John LILLY and a James LILLY both marrying a Priscilla EARL within a year of each other at Hereford Cathredral? It now looks as if I will have to chase ggggg grandfather James/John back to London: such is life!
