Not only can you not search individual census', it now no longer shows relationships in the household.

Rick, I have seen that thread, but there is no mention, that it does not show relationships anymore.

I've tried to use it several times today, and it seems totally unpredictable - one time I couldn't persuade it to go to British census at all, another time I got there, but like you got no relationships listed but yet another visit got all the info I wanted.

They must be doing some kind of update, which is affecting the searches.

Nah Penny!! Its been up the proverbial creek for a couple of days now - either won't give you a choice for which census to search, or it wipes your selections as soon as you make them. Just HOPE they are doing summat good - or mebbe they just have problems .... Maz. XX
