Hi Ron, My response is nothing to do with the software but given you have worked on Hemel Hempstead you maybe able to help me with an ancestor or send me in the right direction. His name was John Everett, born about 1894 and transported to Tasmania for 14 years. I have his convict information and thanks to members of this sight the Old Bailey hearing (1821) but nothing in relation to his family of origin. Thank you in anticipation Liz ----- ubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
