Oh Sue - think nothing of it.  ;D

 I really wanted to bring the BDM site to Melanie's attention -so she can have a search - which I am sure she will do.  The url is too long to link here ;D

I have also had a quick look at all the Dorothy Lilian's on the Ryerson Index - you never know we may have found a death notice for a Dorothy Lilian b. 1908.  No luck there with those that had the age at date of death.

Cheers

I've got onto all the sites so far with no luck, cannot get into the Gov digitised records to check out passenger lists though......seems to be an issue with the site M

Gosh I must have been really lucky, I did actually get on for a while, found one Dorothy Bell with father Sydney but not the right pair.............will maybe try again when the site calms down!
