<<snipped>> If you use menu item Search Records / Census land & surveys you get a BASIC search form that doesn't include birthplace. Even if you filter it by census, the form doesn't change. (It does claim to include a search by address) If you use menu item Search Records / Search All Records, then go to the Census link, then to the link to the specific census, you get a DETAILED search form that includes birth details, census ref., etc. <<snipped>> I've just been informed on another list that the so-called Basic form has some items on that aren't on the so-called Detailed form. There's nothing like consistency - and that's nothing like.... Adrian B

I wrote to FMP to ask why the enumerators' and address books are no longer available for the 1911 census. This is what they replied: "Unfortunately, the 1911 census address and enumerators pages are not currently available on the site, however, I have checked this with our technical team and they are currently working on making these records available so these will be added in the future, however, unfortunately, I cannot advise exactly when this will be. Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience or frustration caused by this situation and I thank you in advance of your patience whilst we work to resolve this." Ruth in Hampshire
