I see several surnames that have been asked about on this group. -- Harry Dodsworth Ottawa Ontario Canada af877@freenet.carleton.ca ----------------------------------------------------------------

He took a direct hit from a bomb whilst firespotting in Sheffield during the blitz. The hole in the ground at the back of the Magnet pub was there for many years after and could still be there as far as I know.
