Hello John
Brilliant! - that looks very likely. Thanks very much.

Best wishes
Lesley

Many thanks for your help Davie and John. I've downloaded the death entry now - brilliant! Goes to prove yet again the myth that its a doddle if you are researching an unusual name!! If I had a pound for every spelling variation I've seen on "Goalen" I'd be able to buy...well, it might just about st...
