Moderators can move posts when appropriate which is preferable to having duplicate requests on different boards. It's possible there wasn't much response from the first post because it clearly looks like Archibald and people didn't have any other options to offer.

rosie99,
I had William in my head for a long time, but as I said my wife thought it more of an Archibald when we looked at it again.

The problem is that once we get a name into our heads we have trouble thinking it can be anything else.    :)   I hope you can now track down this person.

Thanks rosie99,
I think you are probably right, hopefully this can open a few possibilities as I had come to a bit of a dead end. Thanks again for your input.

Aghadowey,
To quote my original post "I don't know if I'm posting this in the right place". If you felt I had posted this thread in the wrong place I would have been happy for you to redirect me, secondly if I wish to canvas further opinion from a wider audience surely I am entitled to do so.
I have already apologised for the inconvenience I may have caused you through my lack of experince.
Regards,
