Hi Derek Thanks very much for your help. Sadly the book is a little to late for my lot. Is there anything on equivalent lines for the Victorian period? I have just received a marriage cert today that lists my Charles James Nugent as a Comedian, which I found rather strange because everything else points to him being behind the scenes not on stage. The marriage was for one of Charles's son's and as he appears to have married his mothers younger sister perhaps the 'Comedian' was a caustic remark towards a disapproving father!!! many regards MOIRA

Hi Moira, I'm not aware on anything earlier along the same lines I'm afraid, sorry. Good luck with your research and if you ever do find any link with the ones sent then please do let me know. regards Derek ----- Original Message ----- From: <MOFID42@aol.com> To: <THEATRE-UK-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 9:32 PM Subject: Re: [THEATRE-UK] Who's Who in the Theatre > Hi Derek > Thanks very much for your help. > Sadly the book is a little to late for my lot. > Is there anything on equivalent lines for the Victorian period? > I have just received a marriage cert today that lists my Charles James Nugent > as a Comedian, which I found rather strange because everything else points to > him being behind the scenes not on stage.
