i was wondering is anyone having problems with the census i.e on some of them it keeps listing the same name but different ages and when you click on them it's hard to regonise who's who! hope im making sense, please help


katie

Yes 1841 and 1851 seem to be giving silly results.

The nonsense is still showing for 1841 and 1851

When you click to see the people in household all have the same name. And the name has nothing to do with the household.

Search for John Smith - click to see people in his hosuehold
and you get something line
Jim Bloggs 2
Jim Bloggs 25
Jim Bloggs 27
and maybe more such rubbish

I assume the ages are correct but the name is garbage



I have seen this mentioned on Newsgroups and now this Board.
Is anyone from Ancestry there?

HI Katie,
So pleased to have found at last a connection with William Clark of Claypole (1829). My Cousin Dennis Clark is his Great Grandson. His grandfather was Edward Clark, William's grandson, who I have been researching for him. Do you have any details of Edward, he was born at Claypole in 1877. He later on moved to New Windsor, Berkshire, and married Ethel Abraham. I would love to hear from you and if you have any information on Edward, (who was his mother?) The funny thing is that in 1891 Census RG12/2716 there is another grandson Frank W Clarke living at Claypole with the family and he was born in London.
Look forward to hearing from.
