I'm the OP.

Thank you that's helpful. 
The automatic upgrade is failing because it first seems to want to make sure edgy is up to date before installing feisty.

I have discovered that there is an archive of old releases at
http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/

It seems I could edit
/etc/apt/sources.list
to change the edgy lines to read;
http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy
then add the feisty lines
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty
and let apt-get try to figure it out.

I'm not exactly sure I need to add the feisty lines, perhaps the upgrade will add them.

 Any idea if that would work?
