	Thankyou all so much for all your hard work, i am sifting my way through, Its funny because yesterday i contacted a member who also had Henry Leale in her tree. I asked if her Henry married Gertrude Emery and she replied, no, her Henry married Gertrude Emily Cheeseman!!! And so i thanked her for her time and thought no more about it. I shall contact her again and get back to you all ...thankyou... sue.
