[Bell Historians] Bell sleuthing - Birdsall

[John Arthur]

Dickon,

I have just checked the lists that came to me from the CBC when they
requested that info be checked in advance of Heritage record Birdsall seems
not to be on it and 643024 applies to both churches!

If there are any other queries relating to York Diocese then please drop me
an email off list.

Regards,
John
