Hi I have found when it comes to transcriptions, both are similar, and sometimes one will find a particular entry that the other does not find, but not much differences between them. The actual scans of the census pages however is a little different. Where comparisons of the two have been done, I have found that in almost all cases, the Find My Past has the better census scans, especially on those faint/hard to read pages. ----- Original Message ----- From: <azusuk1@aol.com> To: <monmouthshire@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2012 12:47 AM Subject: [MON] census data - source? > > I need to access the various census from 1841 to 1911 again but would > appreciate guidance on which sources (Ancestry, Find my--) are used by > most listers. > Regards > David > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > MONMOUTHSHIRE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
