SIR: Through Bolton Worldwide Netlist run by the BEN you enabled me to find Billy Dolan, a friend I had not seen since 1936. It was wonderful to hear from him! I sent him a message tape and hope to come back one day soon to see him in person.

Would you also say "thank you" to two lovely ladies, Sheila Orrell and Mildred, for their letters and newspaper articles. Mildred, who was my neighbour, sent me a photo of a class, and in the picture was Bernard Fox, the other friend I was searching for. Sad to say, Bernard died many years ago.

Could I again ask a favor of the BEN? I want to contact first cousins I have not seen or heard of since 1936. There is Annie, Madge and Elizabeth Kendall. They lived on Nottingham Street and Kendall was their maiden name!
