	I have just submitted corrections for the Bottomley family on the 1891. It will take about 6 weeks before anything shows up. sylvia

	answer .................. two!! Births Mar 1851 (>99%) Bottomley Robinson Halifax 22 255 Births Sep 1856 (98%) Bottomley Robinson Smith Keighley 9a 169 so the one I found on the 1891 census is probably the latter one, while yours will be the first one! sylvia

	Ancestry (and the LDS) have problems with relationships when the head of the household is not first, or is not named as head. They also have problems differentiating the households. (Here Beatrice, say, is identified as Broallbent's daur, but not Alice's nor Lydia's daur.) Since SP use the LDS transcription for 1881, this also applies to 1881 Scotland at SP - I don't know about other years since you have to pay to see what's really there, and it's not happened to my folks (except 1881, but I had the disk, and got it sorted).

Member Since: March 2003 Posts: 2 132 Send Message	Greenway - I think someone else was saying that if there is no husband there, the entire family gets given the surname of the previous household. - I wonder if it is a software problem - it seems unlikely that so many transcribers would make the same mistake?

Member Since: March 2003 Posts: 2 132 Send Message	No, it is there on Ancestry - not sure how it has been transcribed though
