My subscription comes up for renewal in 10 days' time. I have already viewed the 1921 Census for my close family so I don't think I shall bother upgrading. I've just cancelled auto-renew and will wait to see if any offers come up. I have been slightly miffed during the past few months when I see offers for less than I have paid when they told us that loyal customers would be rewarded.

I found it more by luck than judgement. When we had to pay per image we didn’t bother with the transcription because it would have cost extra. You need to be on the transcription page to do it.

Thanks Marg, I have just submitted my first correction
I spent some time looking for George Thomas Barker, to finally find him as Berker! I might go back eventually and submit corrections for the ones I have already found, but I am sure there will be more as I work through the directory, so they will hear from me again!

On the plus side I have already made my money back on the extra cost compared to the price of each image. I'm saddened by the 1921 census as I have several families where Dad just took off, abandoning the family. I also have a mystery child. My 2g grandparents have a daughter who should have been on the 1911 census, but was not and does not fit into the number born alive figures. I don't think she can be the child of a child either due to the ages of the other children. I've put her on the back burner for now.

There is one where it clearly says his name is Dudley, yet it is transcribed as Simon! How can that happen??

I've said this many times, but when the 1939 Register was released (transcribed in a similar fashion) my grandfather and the rest of his household all had the names of people several pages away and there was a total of 16 pages of names that were all out of place. That's just one set I found and it took FMP around 5 years to correct it!

No, from memory he was living alone!

So, what about the households either side?
