Just a quick update.  The Kinsfolk query is fantastic and I'm surging forward both in updating my Lost Cousins site by using Nick's suggestions of a slightly amended Source Records - All and also now have a lovely list of rellies for whom I need to track down various census records, including 1881 t...

Well I've re-read chapters 13 & 14 on queries and custom queries in the Getting the Most From FH and have worked through the suggestions and tinkered a bit and am much more confident that I can achieve my original requirements.  Will have to re-read the whole thing as I've forgotten more than I lear...

Thank you for such a speedy response Jane.  I was sure it would be a common problem - I just couldn't find the solution.

Thank you also for a fab website which I do find most helpful.

He is described as being the grandson of the female head of the house and he does have the family surname. I...
