Mutual Help
In addition to the list of researchers I thought it may prove useful to provide a list of areas on which fellow researchers are seeking information. These can be discussed via direct contact Email to Email, in the Blakeston Group at http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/Blakeston/ or via the mailing list at http://genforum.genealogy.com/blackstone/.I will happily add to this list as requested.
