Is there a way of getting the next or previous page on censuses? I have on several occasions got only part of a family entry, where you have parents at the bottom of the entry or worse the children at the top of a page, their parents who you don’t know, and you trying to find them, who are obviously on the previous page.

There is a way, but the time it takes its almost easier to ask someone to look for you on TTF.
Jonesey has tips on how to do it.

Researching:
For better results please give all the details ,name, date place as you can {pictures by me }

Or you could contact Gr as I believe they will send you the next page, if you don't mind waiting.

This is one of the faults with the records on here as Ancestry and Findmypast it's very easy to go to the next page.

Hi Folks very grateful for your "prompt” response, I have now to look through my tree to find the problem family census, to try out what’s been suggested, Happy New year to all of you Howard.

Howard- just another thing which I found out about 'missing' information on the census on gr.
I have clicked on the image, to find no details and by a fluke have moved the image up, only to reveal a second sheet of the census with the relevant information. This has only happened a couple of times but it was a surprise when it happened. Would advise checking that there aren't two images (pages of census) instead of the usual one. - jle
