The same way Cave has been transcribed to McGhin on the 1901 census perhaps? |

Still wondering why so many women are described on Ancestry as 'windowers'. |

My William Hutt was down as William Stull in the 1851. Well, they managed to get one letter right. |

unfortunately when transcribing the rule is TWYS (type what you see) maybe they should have been wearing glasses or were standing on one leg with their head titlted to the side and squinting?? I've had BOYARD as BRYAND Linda |
