Glad your having fun Derek :) Betty, did you uncheck the 'color' box when you did a search on the page linked to above (well page one)? If not then try again, any name will do. Then search (on the top bar), UK and then either England/Wales or Scotland. Try it, if it doesnt work then let me know. Another suggestion suggested is to clear your cookies and try again. Clearing the cookies would mean you have to log back in, hopefully that would work. If it still doesnt work you could try setting up another account with a different email. Mhairi

Betty Nothing will show up about it being free, it just seems to happen. Try a search in either the uk or american census and try to open up the image Mhairi
