Thanks for looking Toxaris.
The book is in 100 HTML files, each small enough that Calibre does not split them, otherwise I get page breaks where I don't want them. This makes it slow to open in Sigil as it goes through 'tidy' but I can live with that.
The book validates with the Sigil check and with the pagina EPUB Checker.

A typical entry now looks like

<div class="inset" style="text-align: left;">
<b>Old Place</b><br />
Location<br />
New Place<br />
Date of change
</div>

The class="inset" creates a margin. I could achieve the same effect by putting every single line in a <p>.
There would then be 200,000 <p>'s in the book, that's a lot of code.
Do you think this would this be worth the effort involved?
