1891
RG12 Piece 3594 Folio 31 Page 11
Civil Parish: Skircoat
Town: Halifax
County: Yorkshire (West Riding)
Registration District: Halifax
ED: 56
No of Schedule: 78

DUFF Catherine Dau 12 Scholar Halifax Yorkshire
DUFF Margaret Dau 9 Scholar Halifax Yorkshire

I tried to get an image of that one from A... at the library today and no matter what combinations of piece, name, age, RD no record was returned.

Is the piece correct? Is Elizabeth's age right? Is it Duff? Is RD right?

Thanks,

Dave

The Name, age, RD and piece are correct, the image has a line pointing to born 'Scotland Rothsay', others b. Yorks Halifax.

Re Elizabeth Duff,

I entered combinations of that piece no and Elizabeth Duff and her age and the RD the record was not returned.

The transcription has Piece = 25429 and ED = 27.

Geoff
The transcription has to be wrong ?? Or this is wrong.

Not sure what you mean, Dave..

Was the info correct for 1891 in post #3?

Re 1911, I just typed in Elizabeth's name, birth year [1849 or 1852] and lived n Lancashire and the 1911 appeared straight away with the info that I have already given.

This is the ref, [RG14PN25429 RG78PN1454 RD477 SD3 ED27 SN118] also same on FMP, I would suggest your ref is wrong.

Thanks Geoff.

Don't know where that 1911 ref came from but I'll accept it as being wrong.

Re post #1 I could not find the image, so what input fields do work on A... to get the image?

You probably wouldn't get the correct transcription/image for 1891 [post #1] because they are not transcribed as Duff, they are transcribed as Smith [but says Duff on the image], see posts #3 & 5. Let me know if you want a copy of the family in the image for 1891.

Ok, thanks Geoff.

That might explain why I could not find the image.

Smith ? How does that read Smith?

Ok, I should try combination of input fields without surname. I often waste too much of my two hours on one image.

When I search censuses I remove the names when I get some info re the ref, invariably the problem lies with the transcription, usually a surname.

I'l send details of the image.
