Default Find text within text

I have a list of names, each separated by a semi-colon and a space, which I
have pasted into a cell (eg G1 = First Last1; First Last2; First Last3; First
Last4; First Last5)
How do I split out the names into a column so that
A1 = First Last1
A2 = First Last2
A3 = First Last3?
I've used combinations of Find, Mid, Len but I just can't nail the result.
Please help!
