Places change to different counties over the years and census districts sometimes aren't in the same county every time. |

Which one would you advise me to go on Somerset or Dorset?Know alot of errors on census but seems bizarre for different counties to be given. |

The 1871 shows Thomas was not at home that night plus an extra son for the couple : |

I found the 1891 & 1901 census ( agree there must be a transcription error on the latter) I 've just found them on 1881 where it records him being born in Somerset?? |

I saw the Thomas Meech on the 1891 and the 1901 census,wife Mary.Birthplaces listed as Southwark Dorset-i thought Southwark was in London so thought this an error.Also Laymore Dorset other birthplace. |
