Debbie asked: >I am doing a favor for a friend who is trying to locate a town in England called Birdsall. I have done very little research in England and was not sure how to go about locating this town.< Birdsall is a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, midway between York and Scarborough. There are a number of gazetteers which help find United Kingdom and Ireland place names, linked from GENUKI - see http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/Gazetteers.html regards, David Hawgood
