Robert Christian Farrington
Died 7 December 1989
-
This info is on the death reg which is available on Family Search
-
Thankyou.
so he DOB 27 March 1917
Can anyone figure out why he isn't on 1939?
-
Probably in the armed forces
-
Or he has been miss transcribed on 1939 register. On Find my past there is a Robert C Farrinton in Blackpool, who has not been transcribed correctly. Miss spelt name, date and month.
-
Free search on F M P for the one found by Nic gives another person in the household
Mariane K Farrin(g)ton try looking for her on Ancestry

good work
Can't find him on Ancestry
-
On Ancestry he is still redacted. If you search for Ann Higson b1860 on 1939 register for Blackpool you will see where he should be.

Thankyou. very interesting indeed.
I have the dad as Thomas Farrington but can not find a UK birth or death for him.
His (Scandinavian?) wife I have as 1881-1970
-
From Ancestry wedding records Thomas Farringdon married Marianne 14/4/1917 Fässbergs, Göteborg och Bohus, Sverige. From these records his date of birth is given as 14 Nov 1854
Sweden, Indexed Marriage Records, 1860-1947
-
If the Thomas born 1855 is the correct one then there is a death Q3 1837 Blackpool age 82 which might fit.

so annoying
This is the situation as I understand it.
FindMyPast had the exclusive contract for scanning and digitising the 1939 Register, including adding the black redaction strips. They remove some redactions each week because they know what's under the black strips. They can unlock entries for people born over 100 years ago and other deceased people found in the GRO death index.
None of this applies to Ancestry. Periodically someone, presumably FindMyPast, gives them an updated version but Ancestry can't do anything themselves because they don't have access to the original books. They're not keeping entries concealed to be annoying; they're doing it because that's the way it is.
At some point in September 2039, the entire register will be open (minus a few proven centenarians who choose to remain redacted). That's something to look forward to :D

What is Robert's DOB on FindMyPast 1939 please?
You can work this out yourself without a sub to FindMyPast. You access the 1939 on FindMyPast and select the advanced search
https://www.findmypast.co.uk/1939register
You then search for Robert - you have been told how he is transcribed. You will see that there is 1 result to that search. The advanced search gives you the opportunity to enter a full birth date so enter just the birth year, it will show you have the right year by still saying there is one result. Then try each month ie 1, 2, 3 etc it will show -'no results' until you select the correct month. Then do the same with the days of the month.

Hi
Robert Christian Farrington was born in Denmark 27 March 1917 according to the Swedish Church Books.

I've submitted corrections to FindMyPast for Robert's surname (and his mother's) and his date of birth.
Paulo Leeds, FindMyPast mistranscribed his date of birth, so there's no real point in looking for it there.

It would however be a good one for you to 'practice on' so you know what to do in future ;D

Slightly off-topic, near the bottom of the same 1939 page is the Carson family including daughter Violet - the splendid Ena Sharples of Coronation Street, for those too young to remember her :D
