I viewed one of mine, the number of children born/died was totally wrong. |

By seeing the original, you obviously take mistranscriptions out of the equation (obviously if you believe FMP there aren't many - personally, I'd rather believe in Santa, the Tooth Fairy and that my lottery ticket will come up on Saturday!!!). |

The original has been worth it for me. I too found an unknown sibling who died as an infant. Also an occupation & addresses have been mistranscribed. |

I'm glad I looked at the original census record as my gt Grandfather had filled it out incorrectly. |
