1939 Register. Blackpool
« on: Wednesday 17 February 16 21:02 GMT (UK) »
The 1939 Register says that my family in Blackpool are living in Blackburn!
But when you look at the actual register it clearly says Blackpool at the top of the page.
Not what you need with a name like Jones. Glyn

I presume that you have notified FindMyPast that it needs correcting  ;)

The "Blackburn" pages now appear to be correctly indexed as Blackpool.

The associated maps still show Blackburn though. It will be quite a task to go through that many addresses!
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.
