If you search the 1881 census for people born in Lincolnshire, it tells you there aren't any.

If it's still the same tonight I am not even gonna bother! grrrrr what's going on? A big site like that ... all the money they make out of us, you would think they could get programmers that know what they are doing! dizzy

Same happened to me- very frustrating!! The only way round it was to click on each individual English census and look at them one at a time.
