Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for all help you have provided today. The feedback from the fair has been amazing and lots of people didn't know that this resource existed. We'll be back again from 9.30 tomorrow. Hope to see you here.

Can I ask the team ( and warn helpers!) to check whether enquiries have been made by posters before.

I wasted a lot of time today searching records only to discover that a huge amount of work had already been done on the search by helpers on the FA board several years ago

hmmmmmmm ...


that is a bit naughty.

I guess they are hoping there is more information on the web now ......... but it would help to know what had already been found
