I have also found a lot of mistakes in the transcriptions on the 1911 census.
I reported some ie Walford was down as Watford, but the reply I had said that they wouldn't be altering it as that's what it looks like.
Nearly every entry I have looked at, has some obvious error.
I just think it will make it hard for some people who really don't know where their relatives were to find them.
It has thrown me on a coouple of occasions.
Each one I have reported so far I have been told they won't be altered!
So why do they ask you to report them?
