Chris Allonby:
I don't know what your local center (oops "centre") might have on hand but you can order microfilm through them for viewing there. The cost is minimal.

Good luck. You should enjoy your visit to the centre.

Chris:
Interesting observation about the good bishop. We used to hear that after he was beheaded, the head was kicked around by Cromwell's men.

Lol Pat,

Does that mean St Peter's Church in Liverpool might have a bit of his head. I suppose a small bit of the head would not be big enough to be mentioned in the history books. Do you think the congregation of that Church have been puzzling over a small piece of bone or skin for many years? Should they  be enlightened about the Cromwellian game of footie and that small piece of skin that may be in their possession?

Annie, Pat,

Sorry. The thought came in a flash. I thought it was worth a mention lol

Obviously it has you puzzled so I promise not to enter the field of writing jokes for Christmas Crackers. Mine might confuse you. lol

Nope Chris:
You were right on it. I had forgotten that the original query had identified the church in question as being the one with the head. Please keep the jokes coming.

Merry Christmas all!
