Hi Sue, Although this is not a Bristol County problem, I thought I should point out another possibility with images that aren't available. Today I came across this one. Henry Flora Lenox 1881 331 47 Birth image not available The 1900 census has her birth as Aug 1882, so I checked all births in Lenox in 1882. Although she wasn't listed, I noticed there were a number of births that years that were Vol 331 Pg 47. I checked that page and sure enough, her birth was on that image. I searched again using your suggestion for checking just the Vol and Page. Her name is listed, but has the year 1881. Others on the page have 1882. I don't know if that happens often, but thought I would warn listers to ignore the year and select another entry to view the image. Don't assume that it must be a different page because the year is different. It could be an error in the year listed. I have reported the error to NEHGS. Florence

    3. Florence, I'm assuming you checked to make sure her birth year wasn't 1881, correct? If she is 1882, than it is a column shift. I'll check it out in a little bit. I've been getting all the hoses in, since we are going to get rain this week and I'm done with watering for the year.
