Well from what I had read on here ------the number of children born/ died etc,
this is not filled in---just the children living at home. (and I know there were other children )
The info on all 3 records was just the same as the transcripts.
Parhaps I was just unlucky.

I'm not disappointed at all.
Finally finding a record of my grandparents and buying transcript I went for the full page ,and there is added information which shows if there were children born,still living or sadly if any had died.
This has given me a lead after searching for over 20 years and never finding BMD for either of them.
Guess it depends what you were expecting to find Basman

I am not 100% sure but i thought that the 1911 census only got the go ahead to be released early on condition that not all the info would be made public until after the normal 100 year closure date.

---- or have others been disappointed in the 1911 page records, after having downloaded transcripts I decided to go the whole hog and buy the full pages. Luckily have only bought 3 so far, NO extra information on any of them :-( perhaps its only my rellies that only partially filled the forms (was there no obligation in the part if the enumerator to query )but at 30 credits a pop I think I'll stick to the transcipts.
