for the same [erson and being as I am blind I can't read the actual

HI Margaret

They are the same records and it looks like they have been scanned twice for some reason.....probably just a mistake

Yes it looks that way.

You should have 12 pages in total, the second listing states 12 pages and the first is listed as having 4 but it hasnt it has more, although I didnt count them

Safe bet is to print off the second listing

Just checked the first posting of his records on Ancestry and they are a mess with some pages scanned twice. That's why someone has scanned them again and done it correctly on the second attempt!

Print off the second listing
