    Hi Dave,
        Sorry I'm a bit slow on the uptake. I've been on night duty and it does terrible things to the brain cells.
          You mentioned Janet Farquhar and Lucilia Smith. Is Smith Jane's maiden name or is it Lucilia's?
             Thank you. Heather

  Sorry Dave,
           I did mention that night duty isn't good for the brain. Please forget last question... I've worked it out.
              Jane {Morrison} Cowie's mother = Lucilia Smith.
                Don't I feel foolish.

Sorry for slow response.
I've been away for a couple of days.
Will respond to PM later tonight, possibly tomorrow (latest).
