Can anyone help one of my co-workers with a small issue we are finding with FMP and the 1911 UK census, please? If I recall correctly, it used to be possible to switch the FMP view to look at the front page of the household return to check the address. This was especially useful where the person was an inmate or patient, because the name of the institution would be revealed. Now, unless I'm missing something, FMP only transcribes the address, eg, Hammersmith Road, but not the name of the institution, and I cannot find a way to get to the institution name. Fortunately, Ancestry often does transcribe the name of the institution, eg, West London Hospital, and since I have an Ancestry subscription I can often look it up. Am I indeed missing something about FMP? Can my co-worker answer his own questions?! TIA for any help and HNY to all.

This brings up a menu from which you can choose the "address" page of the Schedule which should give you what you are looking for.
