Salopian - Just as a point of order - I am surprised to learn that the C.G.Bonehill records were ALL destroyed in the bombing...I assume you mean 68 years ago in WWII. The reason for my surprise is that in 2007 you posted that you have a "friend" who has the Bonehill records and could perhaps help me find information on my SxS. His name was Pete and I sent off the specifics and photos required to do the background check on my Bonehill as requested with an obvious expectation of someday receiving some information in return...from Pete.
Now I learn that I was just contributing to Pete's research effort? Building a data base of research is difficult work, and I applaud anyone willing to devote the time and effort. It is, however, disappointing to learn that I'll never learn more about my Bonehill than I already know, nor should I ever expect to hear back from Pete since the information transfer in this case was apparently a one way street. Why didn't you just say the records were gone back in 2007? Had you done so, I still would have been happy to contribute to the research effort but I wouldn't have had to wonder for two years why I never got a reply.
