Biography references
You asked:

''I have access to a considerable amount of information which would allow me to considerably update the entry on Charles Leach. The information is all contained in a biography of him. Do I need to quote the original source reference or just the book? ''Please notify me on my talk page. ''Thanks. Epimandios (talk) 09:20, 2 June 2009 (UTC)''
 * You should cite the biography from which you obtained the information, not whatever sources the biographer may have used. In general, one should never cite a source that one hasn't seen; see WP:CITE. That said, one can sometimes cite both; for instance, if the biography includes a direct quotation from an unpublished letter written by Leach, and you want to include the quotation in the article, you could use a citation of the form "Charles Leach, letter to John Doe, 2 Aug. 1900, qtd. in Richard Roe, Charles Leach: A Maniac for All Seasons (Rutland: Idle Press, 2005), p. 99" (alternatively, you could mention the date and recipient of the letter in the running text and cite only the biography in the reference).
