Wonder if someone can advise. I have found my GGGrandad on the 1901 site using the Decoder (which is brilliant!) BUT when I look for him on Ancestry he isn't there! Is it because Ancestry not complete? He is Joseph Button aged 72, carpenter, born Leeds Yorkshire, was in Civil Parish of Newington in 1901. Can I use the person's ID from 1901 Decoder somehow on Ancestry? Cheers for any thoughts, will be offline now but back later!!!
