Post subject:  1911 corrections

Found it very difficult to find a way to make a correction. Forgive me if this is not the right place to do it. My correction is to 1911 census Ontario Russell/49 osgoode page 3. Line 30 under the surname Currran...given name should be Albert.
Line 33 given name should be Eva.


Thanks annaB

Ref.: 1911 / Ontario / Russell / 49 Osgoode / page 3

Anna,

Line 30 - no correction done because the enumerator distinctly wrote "Ambert" as the given name.

The policy of this site is to transcribe the names as written by the enumerator.


What if I find an error in the original census?
If the error is in the original census document:

- a surname note provides an alternate surname spelling and allows the members of this family to be identified in the result of a search done on this alternate spelling. When entering a surname note, indicate if it applies to the entire family or only to this individual. Also, please include the bibliographical reference to the source that corroborates the surname provided, and if applicable, add an associated note.

You will find much more information on this at Surname Notes

-for a discrepancy in the given name, gender, and/or date of birth - an online or off-line birth record link is the preferred way to annotate the correct information.


Cheers,
