You know, Mr and Mrs Hill are very patient, and tolerant. They would need to be given the number of times that people spell their names wrongly! Now - I know that they would never dream of pointing that out to forum members ... diplomatic souls that they are.

However, I have no such compunction! And although you were the most recent, abbey craig, you are by no means that only one to use 'alternative' spellings.

Mrs Hill = Frances (not Francis ... that is the boy's name, as in Francis Lee - the footballer, and the only one I can think of right now!)
Mr Hill = Ian (not Iain ... a perfectly acceptable spelling of the name, and the more traditional Gaelic translation for 'John', but one 'i' is sufficient for our Arkwright!).
