Thanks Randy, I have just taken another look, and there staring me in the face is the new URL. However, as you say, both work!

Although it can be quite heavy going I would recommend reading http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~jimella/counties.htm which goes into depth into the history of the divisions of out country, and how the present set up is derived. It also shows how to arrive at the correct location for local areas. Basically it is the same system which I, and other genealogists in the UK, use. Not to mention the public at large who almost instinctively know how to compile a location.

We are a country with a long history and a multicultural one at that, which does mean that we have inconsistencies in the way we name places. It is not in our nature to look down on the new world, who, like children, think they know it all, and in their ignorance believe that they are always right. You see we have no need, we know who we are.

I think it is still fair to treat them as second-level entities under the UK umbrella.
