Thanks Geoff.

Not enough info for this one. Can't be sure we have all the children so naming pattern is not a good guide. Can't find baptisms and marriages needed either.

Thanks Barbara.

Currently zero credits and not enough deaths on the list yet. Perhaps I should get some before the AUD slips 10%.
