And so on & so forth... This is first time I've used this site for searching on the other side of the pond, SO much easier/faster than for UK residents !. This is a good site although apparently prone to errors in transcriptions (although so is Ancestry in my limited experience so?). Care is needed when filtering, I recommend only use thro' the Census filters NOT the BMD ones, and for country of birth use "England" or "Wales" first AND THEN "UK" if no luck the first time (yes I know its odd!). After that don't enter placenames etc if possible, just be prepared to flog thro lots of possibles... if you're lucky SOME entries give complete households, but not always !
