	Please can someone check & see if I'm loosing the plot! I'm typing in Ben* James 1867 in the main search box & getting no census results at all after 1871. If I go into census on the left, the Wales census 1881-1901 appears to be missing. The only way I can access is to go into census on the right & select Wales 1881 & up he pops! 1881 Wales Census about Benjamin James Name: Benjamin James Age: 14 Estimated birth year: abt 1867 Relation: Son Father's name: John Mother's name: Margaret Gender: Male Where born: Tenby, Pembrokeshire, Wales Civil parish: Tenby St Mary in Liberty County/Island: Pembrokeshire Country: Wales Street address: Crackwell St 4 Bellevue Education: View image Employment status: View image Occupation: Joiner Registration district: Pembroke Sub-registration district: Tenby ED, institution, or vessel: 13 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Margaret Bearly 42 Gertrude Digney 15 Benjamin James 14 Edgar James 10 Hannah James 18 Harriet James 13 James James 23 John James 46 John James 20 Margaret James 48 Mary Ann James 22 Wm.
