thanks for that, but I had already checked the IGI and BVRI, perhaps I should have mentioned that.

I know the IGI isn't exhaustive either, so I was hoping someone with actual parish register transcripts would have a peek.  I didn't think that having one son being born Oct 05 would preclude Joseph being a possibility, I don't think I have one marriage on my tree where the bride wasn't already at least quite pregnant, but perhaps thats just the moral quality of my tree!

I also checked Joseph FIELD baptisms, as its quite possible he was baptised before any marriage.

Thanks for you input, its appreciated.

There is an option (at least in version 6) of OE that prevents attachments being opened, which you can just check/uncheck.  Personally, I would only change the registry as a last resort (its nasty when it goes wrong...), allowing all attachments could be a security risk, but you can try and compensate for that by things like turning off automatic download of preview message, turning the preview off altogether, utilising virus software to check your mail etc.

If you let me know what version of OE, and what operating system you are using I'll have a deeper look.

Probably the nearest park to that address would be Marie Louise Gardens, which was there from about 1904, and still remains.  Though of course theres also Didsbury Park, and Fletcher Moss close by, and a bit further off, Fog Lane Park.  I think Hough End, and Christies Playing Field which one of the other posts I think meant, were always just that, playing fields.  Hough End is still there, Christies got a hotel built on it.

Fletcher Moss has a great botanical garden, and used to have stuff like Orchid Houses, they closed the greenhouses maybe 10 years ago. 

It is still there, is a little street just off Burton Rd, I used to live a few streets down.  Its right behind the old Withington Hospital buildings.  The houses, if I remember right, were low victorian terraces (ie just the ground & first floor).

You should be able to see it on Google maps or something.
