    Is any one else having problems with 1851 census on ancestry?
    Every time I bring up details there is just one name listed,sometimes six or seven of the same name but different ages. Nothing like I have asked to see. I wonder if it is me?

      How strange - just done a couple of searches - I think the images are right but the transcriptions are alphabetically way out.
      Obviously some gremlins in the works. :o

        I am having similar problem too!! Get the correct census page but when I click to see others on the page, some totally different area comes up! I am getting a family of Caves instead of Taylors!!

          I've just got a very long list of Margaret Cox's listed as being in the workhouse!!!

          At least the census image is OK.

            It has completely lost the plot today, which is a relief in a way, because to begin with, I thought I was losing the plot!

              It's been like that all day today, I discovered it very early but thought it was just a one off, it was only after looking at another one about an hour later that I realised something was wrong, but the images are correct.

                I was having problems yesterday when looking at the census. Said to change from exact to get more results - but it was on soundex and also on no stars but still wouldn't give me the results.

                  I've just noticed that it doesn't matter what search terms I put in, top of the list of possibles is Matthew W Bromely, every time.

                  I'm not looking for Matthew anybody!

                    I had this problem yesterday as well, but didn't think anything of it. The list showed lots of people called Sarah Ward of various ages, as well as the John Hutchinson that I had been looking for. In fact the household only included John his wife & daughter, no Sarah Ward at all

                      Perhaps they're trying to thread the indexes as OC suggested:D

                        It's still doing the same today, so obviously not fixed.

                            I've emailed them too it was just bringing up a random selection for me last night rather than actually bringing up records based on my search terms.
