Oh well - that seems to rule him out. Once again, a sincere thankyou to all who have given their time and expertise to my posting. As you say, it was a very difficult time. My father remembered having to stand up in court soon after his parents separated - he had to say which of his parents he would rather live with. At six years old! Hard to believe that so recently the legal system could have been so insensitive. My grandmother lived the rest of her life alone. Among her effects I found some tiny snapshots of her, with Chriss, before their marriage. He was tall, slim and handsome. His genes must have passed me by!
