Yellow triangles again
« on: Monday 30 March 09 05:43 BST (UK) »
I posted a question about yellow triangles in the Drouin collection some time ago...a name correction with no contact information for whoever made the correction...nobody was able to give me any suggestion as to what was up with them.

I may have just figgered it out :P

I made a correction in the 1911 Canada on Ancestry a couple of days ago. I only made one correction, to the head of the household's family name.

Today I went back to the census index and found that the head had the little talk bubble next to the name, but the rest of the family members had the little triangles next to their theirs. So it seems it may be an extended correction made from one family member's name and applied to the whole bunch of them.

That's my theory :D
