    Thanks again. I have been looking around and have come up with this of the 1911 census pages.


    All of the original household pages have survived, but some of the Enumerators’ Summary books (RG78s), relating to the following counties and registration sub-districts, are missing from the archives:

    Buckinghamshire: Amersham
    Cambridgeshire: Leverington, Walpole St Peter
    Devonshire: Okehampton
    Cheshire: Lymm, Budworth, Runcorn
    Glamorganshire: Central Cardiff
    Leicestershire: Lutterworth

    Lincolnshire (unspecified registration sub-districts)
    Somersetshire: Keynsham, Long Ashton
    Staffordshire: Repton, Tamworth
    Warwickshire: Atherstone
    Yorkshire, West Riding: Norton

    This means that they will never be available online, and the original household page will be the only page that you receive when you pay for an image.

    It also means that in a small number of cases that you will not be able to locate a household through the ‘residential place’ field by using certain names such as the civil parish, as these were transcribed from the enumerator’s summary books to power the search function.

    You should still be able to locate the original household page through the other search fields

    This might be the answer why cant find people. Perhaps my lot fall into this
    part of Lincolnshire.

      They should still show up on a name search, though, shouldn't they?
