Does anyone have a website that will convert British pounds to American dollars at 1916 rates? I'm trying to determine what 20 pounds, 12 shillings and 4d would have been worth. Thanks much..... mary lou

Although I will recheck a possible sourcve onm this (not immediately to hand), my impression is that this was part of the 'five dollars to the pound' era. (and 20 shillings to the £, so in proportion.) EVE Author of The McLaughlin Guides for Family Historians Secretary, Bucks Genealogical Society
