Hello Nivard   Just read your email and would like to know how you can contact the person who has made a correction to transcriptions on ancesty.   I have on the 1861 census living in Islington my Great-Great-Grandfather & his first wife   James ETHERTON Amelia ETHERTON   Someone has added an alternative surname for Amelia of Amelia CORK and I would like to know why. All I can see from looking at the image is that next door the Cork family is living.   I am interested as I have never been able to find a marriage for James & Amelia nor her death before he married to his second wife in Lambeth 1870.   Regards Carole Moon       --- On Thu, 1/10/09, Nivard Ovington <ovington1@sky.com> wrote: From: Nivard Ovington <ovington1@sky.com> Subject: Re: [SRY] Ancestry.com and LondonMetropolitanArchivesrecordscorrections To: eng-surrey@rootsweb.com Date: Thursday, 1 October, 2009, 4:53 PM Hi Dave Well worth the small effort to do the corrections, not only does it help you and others but every correction has a link to contact you as the contributor Looking at a lot of the 16th and 17th century PRs its a wonder we get any transcriptions that make sense as the writing in much of the early PRs is extremely difficult to read (slight understatement there !)
