Hugh, Is there something I can do to get the digest back to its original form? It was so much quicker and easier to go direct to a particular message, than to have to scroll down through an entire list of postings and answers.

I thank those who made some kind posts on my behalf and who pointed out that I have helped many people in the past, both on this and other lists. My only proviso has ever been that I expect those asking for help to demonstrate that they have first made every effort to find for themselves the answer to their query, using the resources available. I really don't see how anyone can say that this is unreasonable. As far as I am concerned, the matter is closed and, hopefully, we can all look forward to Christmas and the renewal of our genealogical researches in 2009 with good spirit. My compliments of the season to everyone. -- Roy Stockdill Professional genealogical researcher, writer & lecturer Newbies' Guide to Genealogy & Family History: www.genuki.org.uk/gs/Newbie.html "There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about."
