Thanks Ann for offering to share your research.

I agree with Diana about the surnames in the subject heading. I'm not very
active at present, due to pressures of work, but I do treat myself to a
quick browse of the list each evening. If the surname is in the subject then
I can tell quickly if it is one for me.
