1911 con

[Inicky]

ive waited and waited for the last areas to be transcribed (my area of research), had e-mail from 1911 saying all of england now transcribed so i bought credits

they are not transcribed, i have searched for 6 different family members who i know existed and they arent on 1911

not a happy bunny

expect they are there - just poorly transcribed - altho FindMyPast will stick to their guns about the quality of transcription.


have you exploited the 'wildcard' search feature ?

[Pels.]

Inicky .. just a thought, are you putting too much information into the search, sometimes this is more of a hindrance than a help .. ?

We aren't allowed to do a look up for you, but if give us a few details we might be able to check on the index for you, to see if they are there.

[Inicky]

tried various methods

could someone please explain wildcards please

thankyou

Nowt to stop you doing your own - just like the other older census years
