: For anyone looking for links to the Caldwell Homeland

bit confused - but my source tree is a bit rough (acknowledgement to Late lesley Gordon)

Like to encourage anyone else with ancient snippets to put them on the public domain and lets get some real "old" trees going.
(note no mention of the Chancellor thingee and we are nearly back far enough)
