Hi Julie

I think a lot of GR members will be lost without your help, i think that's the trouble now everything cost's so much with the sub's and then getting the cert's etc i know i have spent a fair bit of money now.

All the best and thanks again Paula

On Astra's 1901 census posting there is a Richard Bennett Baker, which might relate to the witness Richard Edward Bennett Brookes
