Gerry,

Thanks so much.  It looks like Sarah & James named a son after his father.

Hi,
If you would be kind enough to use upper case when a surname is typed, it would always be a help in a clear reading of your posts. ;D

It is the "usual way" in the forum.

Was the woman Norah (Honoria) ESTER or was she Norah (Honoria) Ester  SURNAME or was she Norah (Honoria) Ester O'DONAHUE?
