1881 Census - Reported Mistakes

The first results from the 1881 Census Transcription Project led by FFHS and LDS was the production of the computer produced microfiche. The recording of possible transcription errors between the filmed Enumeration Books and the microfiche version was co-ordinated by Sue Lumas on behalf of the British Genealogical Records Users Committee. Please note this activity has now ceased and reported 'mistakes' are no longer being collated by Sue Lumas. The report from BGRUC is now available in Acrobat format either in a pdf format or a zipped pdf format for download
