Hi Jim I for one have been helped by those volunteers and their dedicated transcription works. I have been lucky that Renfrew was transcribed for the 1841 census and I duly found some of the people I had been looking for.

Across the globe many thousands of hours are being donated by volunteers to bring the 19th century census data to everyone for free. Please see the Renfrewshire Free Census Project website at www.freewebs.com/renfrewcensus, or any of the others counties in Scotland, England or Wales, for more information. This is a very worthwhile volunteer project and it is disappointing to the hard-working volunteers to see inaccurate information being carelessly propagated. I am immensely proud of the results the Renfrewshire team have achieved so far. There's always room for more volunteers!
