Wondering if anyone can help.

I found a relative on the 1851 census search, but when I download the image of the actual page it bears no relation to the details on the summary screen. I assume that this is just an inaccurate link on the site. Any ideas on how to find the cirrect image?

Cheers,

James

Hi Linda,

When I pull up the 'original image' I get two families called Parrish and Robinson and no mention of Rubery.

If you are getting the correct page showing up could you save it and email it to me?

Cheers,

James

Hi George,

Thanks for that; the extra names are useful. However, it is a copy of the actual photo image of the record that I'm trying to get. If you can get that it would be great.

Cheers,

James

James, I suggest you delete your email address. It is not a good idea to put it on here where all the world can see it.
