Many thanks Falkyrn

I now have something tangible to follow.  Have looked up the article, very helpful and have consulted the Familysearch site which confirmed they have the indexes to sasines on microfilm.  Particularly helpful for those of us in Australia.  So my next step will be to visit my nearest Family Search Centre.

Who knows what I might learn about my family!!
