I believe that FMP have a programme for updating the redacted records based on an ongoing comparison with GRO records. I have revisited records on several occasions and found further people revealed.

Entries are opened up if a subscriber sends proof that the blacked out person has died. Of course the subscriber needs to know who the blacked out person is and that can be a bit of a guess but I have had an entry opened on FMP. However that entry is still blacked out on Ancestry.

One of the advantages to Ancestry is that users can add variations and corrections which will also show up in the search when added (after a couple of weeks or so) Whereas with Findmypast you can only submit corrections and hope they agree with you, if the error is in the enumerators transcription you cannot change it I too have found lots of errors in the Findmypast version, so its good to have two transcriptions to check out Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 09-May-18 4:02 PM, John The Genes via LANCSGEN wrote: > Howard, I have found the Find My Past version of the 1939 Register also to be riddled with errors. I've notified FMP as each one has turned up but received no notification of any changes.
