Hi Everyone,
                    Firstly I would like to thank all those of you for you replies and assistance, it gives you a real good buzz when you get a some info .

    Secondly Cas mentioned about going to the NA in Kew, I had a look at the link, but I'm still quite new to this and still finding my feet it all looks a bit daunting.So can anyone recommend someone who carries out this sort of work, I'd rather use a recommendation. I would like to make the connection between my Charles Henry and Thomas Watson .

 Thanx All Mat
