Hi Mike - I see that you have added a clause to the sentence about Stanley Kirkby being a double cousin of Louise Kirkby Lunn. The issue here is that, though I am sure you may be right, the quote in the newspaper for him being just a cousin that I originally had in the article does not mention double cousins. So this sentence now contains unreferenced material. If you have not got a reference for this additional (and interesting) fact, this should probably not be included until we have.

Also, the issue about the pronunciation of the name Kirkby, has arisen again - another editor using just an IP address has added back the letter "K". I genuinely believed after asking around that the K was not pronounced. If I am wrong, then I will hold my hand up and say sorry. Perhaps this should not be in the article anyway, as name pronunciations are usually only given if the name is unusually complicated or foreign.
