Sorry mlr0663, I've been guilty of a few "its a long shot but..."'s

My hated one is "oh, you're doing your family tree?  How far have you got back?"  People who aren't really interested only ever ask you about how far you've got back!  I make a point of telling them about a relative and their life....they usually don't ask again!
Johnson, Crankshaw, Burdett, Shaw, Dawson/Dulson, Whitebread/Whitbread, Drane, Hyett, Holtaway, Thompson, Bodell, Livermore, Gee, Vernon, Smith......the list goes on....and on...and on....
