Thankfully I don't have your problem :-) , so I don't have an answer :-(
However every six months or so I get an e-mail from John Ball who runs the
Welsh Family Archive Site:
http://home.clara.net/wfha/wales/
which is sent to every e-mail address with contact info on his site, for the

If you don't get an answer from a list member, I'm sure that John would be
happy to assist you.
