I have hit a strange problem here.
Just trying to enter some realtives from the 1881 Scottish census.
Now, the transcription is a stupid one admittedly:
Alexander Paterson H aged 30
Alexander Paterson wife aged 30.
The second one should be Alexanderina of course and I have subbed a correction to Ancestry.
But Lost Cousins won't let me enter the original transcription as it must think I am trying to enter the same person twice, even though I have given a corrected first name for her AND her maiden surname.
Shall I just take a chance and enter her correctly, even though that doesn't match the transcription?
