dunsbyowl1867 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Not according to the transcription ! I have noticed loads(more than normal) of transcribing errors with my own family on the 1911 Census on Ancestry. I wonder who they paid a pittance to do it? :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madannie77 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Day 9 Some of those revised laws were still the same (although worded differently) when I qualified as a referee in 1996. Thankfully the law on charging had been changed by then. I find it interesting that some of these changes only came in in 1915 and not earlier.
