Thankyou Rick for all your information. This should help to narrow down the field a little. I did get Joan Reakes to try and help me with this many years ago (around 1984) and she came up with about 15 and told me that I would have a hard time finding him, but I will never give up. It has been on the back burner for a while but the research has expanded a lot since then and I will continue to search. Thanks again and have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
