I've bought credits but can someone advise before I start spending them if the transcript actually has a list of all the family living at that address or does each transcript only refer to the name searched? I'm having a devil of a job finding family members and the only way i can know for certain I've got the correct family is if other family members appear at the same address. I don't want to spend 10 credits for each name or find I've wasted 30 credits by choosing the wrong family.

The transcript lists all the people shown on the census return.
