Think the Peggy was short for Margaret - I think the reference was just giving the nickname after her first two names - bit confusing though....

Thanks Jan. That's interesting. I've never come across Evelyn being shortened to Peggy, although I've come across both Elizabeth and Margaret being shortened that way. I'll store that one up in case it relates to any family tree-type puzzles.

Poor you! Hope you feel better soon. I used to suffer regularly from sinusitus - but not for a while, thank goodness.

I'm afraid I'm off now - hope to see you soon.

Hi, Jan.

John Roberts probably was Welsh - but it's not him!

Hi, all.

I probably won't be around over the weekend so if you want to move on, please do. If you're no further on I'll give additional clues when I come back.
