As mentioned elsewhere,

Julie Lee, (nee, Cork), Kevin's daughter, provided me with the Ph.D in electronic format, and painstakingly searched for the photographs referred to in Chapter 7; and found, collated, and supplied them to me in electronic format. [See entry under Julie Lee.]

Every time-consuming request I made of her, re Kevin's work - she responded quickly and diligently too. This makes the job of a "collator" of Kytherian heritage, so much easier.

I think her involvement was also rewarding for her.

As she commented: "Finally we've found all the photos! It was very interesting to go through a lot of Dad's research to find these, but I think it was worth it. I can't believe how many drafts he had done of his thesis just to get to the point he finished at".

When acknowleding her mother, Merle in the previous entry I wrote:

"Research is a very thankless task. It costs money; rather than makes money. (Which undoubtedly explains why Kytherians are not very enamoured of it.)

Families make great sacrifices to help researchers realise their vision, and achieve their ends.

Merle Cork, wife of Kevin, whose Ph.D thesis - which is ostensibly about Kytherian Cinema owners and operators - is one such family member whose sacrifices have been considerable.

Upon Kevin's untimely demise, she wisely preserved intact, all his researches and his photographic record.

She also very kindly agreed to allow the Ph.D to be published on kythera-family.

We thank her profusely for this.

In many ways, she too is part of this immense labour of love which has helped to preserve a part of the Kytherian heritage which may never have been uncovered, (certainly never in the detail provided by Kevin), and would almost certainly have otherwise been lost.

Her two children - Julie Lee, and Stuart Cork, are also part of this process.
[Photographs of all family members have been posted to the web-site.]

We thank the Cork family very much".
