I clicked on a name that was completely mistranscribed and it brings up a list, including do you want to correct a name. Apparently they cant correct place names yet though! Mine was Meins for Steers!! |

Kim, Yes there is and they normally like people to tell them about mistranscriptions. at the top right hand corner there is a help button it brings you through different subjects and if none match yours they have an automatic contact page. Pat x |

Hi Kim, I wish I knew!! It took me ages to find a rellie in 1891. The surname was Stone, but mis-transcribed as Swn?? Hopefully someone who knows the answer will reply! Best wishes Paula |
