Hi Mike
Thanks for that, it was driving me nuts. Still unsure as to why Sarah King didn't score an L when the guys did. Maybe the enumerator was just a chauvinist, lol!!

Most of my ancestry is from the Midlands area of England. I was born in Birmingham, but a lot of my ancestors are from the Black Country. So I am a Brummy but also a Black Country wench (hence the Yahoo nickname!)
