Oh, yes, sorry, jax - didn't read your post properly.

Whatever it is, if Keith's in it, it's from 1926 or later.

My 2nd cousin has a census listed as portrait.....as do I have copies of marriages and baptisms taken from ancestry listed as portrait as I have posted above.

In this case it could be a photo....but not all that say portrait are actual photos

If Keith's in it, it can't be the 1911, as he wasn't born until 1926.
And it says "Category: Portrait" so I think it must be a photo.

Just because it says there is a photo, it may not be what you think it is.....it may just be a copy of the 1911 census form

Same as the public tree that has that census

This is listed from my private tree which is actually a screen shot of the marriage cert from the London parish records...so not a portrait

Hi Sidami
Just a thought. There is a site called Lincolnshire connections. If you google it you could maybe ask on there if someone is connected to the family. Lots of people put photos on there.
