## I seem to have lost my base models - I had obtained them already from pre-existing tables.
Basically, this relates to one table, a model and a subclass, which I thought would be quite short.

class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_one :address
  has_one :phone
  belongs_to :district
end

class Member<Person
def
## The following line is the bit that I do not know how to do.
  member?; mem == true 
end

create_table "people", :force => true do |t|
    t.integer  "roll"
    t.integer  "district_id"
    t.text     "title"
    t.text     "forenames"
    t.text     "surname"
    t.boolean  "mem"
    t.datetime "created_at"
    t.datetime "updated_at"
end
