Judith and others,

I've saved obits for Prince Philip from those papers which published them
today. Some (eg The Australian and The Age) were genuine obituaries, others
were more like dressed-up news reports.

I think we should index them if published. Here's the format I slotted
into today's Age file (sorry Jo F <g>):

MOUNTBATTEN, Philip (Duke of Edinburgh);09APR2021;(99);O;at Windsor,
England (born 10 Jun 1921 Corfu, Greece);

I've used that simple version because that's what most people would search
for. His real name was Philip Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, but
does anyone outside a handful of European genealogists know that? Our aim
is to make entries easily locatable, and that one certainly isn't <g>

John,

There are four pages in RNR for to-day's SMH on the Duke. Is it there for
the interest of our Indexers or do you want me to treat it as an obituary.
If so, what names should I list him under.............Judith
