Thank you all, what amazing team work!!

Names in Meckie's Will include the brothers CP and MF Smith as well as niece Birdie French and grand-daughter Adelaide Lee - all of which have appeared in your so useful newspaper and other items.

If you get the chance to find her Will - it's on Ancestry and is about 20 pages, her bequests are eye-watering, and from around the World. 

I need to absorb all this now, but probably will have another related question tomorrow. 

Thanks again,  Pam.

Your welcome Pam, pleased we could help.
