Hi Welsh lady,
                       well until you came along all he had was a copy of the death certificate of his G/grandfather Alfred were it states his death by temporary insanity, but with your help and the help of others he is now on his way to compiling a family history for his grandchildren to treasure.
I have traced his G/grandmothers side quite a way back for him so he is over the moon with the help he has recieved from you, and say's he will now be joining the rootschat gang,
                         thank you all I couldn't have asked for more, Kali.
