Sorry popped downstairs to make a coffee and got waylaid by the washing.

Thanks I will have to ask if Mother-in-law's parents had any siblings then I will know if it the right family.

It's not surprising that the name has been mistranscribed as Bent but I wonder why she changed to using her middle name. I guess we will never know.

Thanks again

Alison
